Just in time for Christmas, your hosts
Tim Watts and
Michael O'Connell join special guest
Vlado Zeravica to talk about
The Road,
both the 2006 Cormac McCarthy novel and the 2009 motion picture
adaptation starring Viggo Mortensen. It is dark. It is depressing.
It is bleak. Much like many of the family gatherings going on this
holiday season! Join the
Post-Apodaclypse gang as they dissect this brilliant piece of post-apocalyptic introspection.
I think this is the best episode yet, keep up the good work.
ReplyDeleteRegarding the mom, in the book she says "I'd take him with me if it werent for you. You know I would. It's the right thing to do."
So yes, she is still abandoning her son by leaving, but only because taking him with her is not an option.
