As 80.1 was being planned, the Editors voiced their concerns about the lack of on-screen romaniticisation of the City of Naarm compared to the likes of metropolitans such as New York, London and Paris in mainstream media.

It would have remained a matter of solicitude if it wasn't for our friends at In Review () who stepped in to resolve our concerns. In Review's in-house film critic, Olivia Jones sheds light on cinema that embodies our beloved city.

"The situation in 'Past Lives' would put many a Gen Z into a coma, I am sure, but perhaps it was why the film was such a hit amongst audiences, constantly plagued by the endless possibilities for their lives, the inherent romanticism of our intertwined relationships and the ‘what if,’ just like our main characters."

Fernandes untangles the philosophy of Celine Song ( )'s acclaimed directorial debut starring Greta Lee, Teo Yoo () and John Magaro (), from a generational perspective at the link in bio.
