When we first started dating, I (Ariel) wrote a piece about the Coen Brothers’ A Serious Man for a retrospective on their work at TIFF Bell Lightbox. So, as these were the early days of our relationship, Bob wanted to spend time with me while I worked, and decided to watch the movie while I took notes. He was not prepared, and spent the majority of the time doing double-takes between me and the TV, as if searching for hints as to why I was laughing so hard. He just didn’t get it. Now, almost five years later, he sat down and watched it again, now with a bit more experience with Jewish culture. And by Job, I think he’s got it.
Tune in as we discuss faith, religion, “terrible” people, serious people, and whether or not Rabbis are kind of like therapists. All of this and so much more!
