“We don’t get a lot of things to care about.” One thing we don’t care much about this year is the Oscars, especially given the lack of love for one of the best films of last year: Pig (2021). We got a lot of things to care about from Pig, and we’re excited to come back from our hiatus to share them with you all! The film follows an Oregonian truffle hunter (Nicolas Cage) on a search to find his stolen, beloved foraging pig—a mission that transforms into a journey for him and his companions to confront long-held grief and loss. We discuss the outstanding performances in this movie, the film’s poignant meditations on pain and isolation, and our appreciation for short movies.
