It's a "Romantic Comedy," although is it? Some have speculated it's secretly a horror movie, about a Match Maker named Lucy (Dakota Johnson) whose hooking up Wealthy Bored Miserable New Yorkers with each other. She is not in their class strata, and her ex-boyfriend John (Chris Evans) who she tried her life out with in the city is still trying to make it as an actor in the same apartment. As a Match Maker, she sells romantic dreams that can never truly be fulfilled this way.. setting people up by mathematical algorithm in a digital age. But, she gets a chance to live the dream she's selling... when a Finance Nepo Baby named Harry Castillo (Pedro Pascal) starts pursuing her. It's set up as a formulaic Rom Com, yet Celine Song as a former Match Maker (for six months while trying to get her plays produced in 2015) has alot to say about the transactionality of relationships in a digital age, the need for human connection that algorithmic connection cannot replicate, and these matchmaking services as a business. #materialists #dakotajohnson #pedropascal #chrisevans #pastlives #celinesong #romanticomedy #filmpodcast #moviepodcast #romcom #matchmaking #matchmaker #highvalueman #highvaluewomen #jacobin #pastlives #celine #romdram #romanticomedy
