Glass Onion & See How They Run: How a Mind Deceives Itself

What do 2022's Glass Onion and See How they Run have in common? Despite being whodunnits modeled after classic Agatha Christie, both films are less interested in being puzzles -- and more in being cinematic roller coaster rides.
Twists, turns, and surprisingly simple truths await... but that simplicity is clouded by our own desires to seek something more complex. Put your deerstalkers on, friends. We're going to examine why.
The game is afoot!

BEHIND THE SCENES:
- So, my day job is, I'm a teacher -- and I teach a freshman writing seminar in the fall. I tend to assign both of the readings cited here to my class, so this has been on my mind for a bit. These two films helped me generalize some of the things I like to stress early into their college education, especially as they start crafting college-level papers for the first time.
