这期节目,我邀请到一起制作腰部播客“一车烂话”的主播车厘子(Cherry)和烂木头(Lassie)来聊一聊由《离经叛道》导演Maria Schrader执导,大表哥Dan Stevens全程德语主演的人机爱情片/AI悲喜剧《我是你的人》。语言学家Alma因为需要资金,同意参与改善机器人Tom编程的项目,然而,她却对这个基于她“完美情人”设定的机器人并不来电……The past was a foreign country and we date robots now.I am joined by Cherry and Lassie from Rotten Cherry in discussing the German film I Am Your Man, starring Dan Stevens and Maren Eggert. Enjoying Dan’s British-accented German, I was deeply enchanted by this story between a reluctant woman and her robot friend, programmed according to her romantic taste. It is light-hearted with comical details as well as philosophical reflection. Tenderly, it asks questions about what to do when facing the ending of a relationship, and human beings’ exploration of their desires and fears in a near future. 02:00 Rotten Cherry (一车烂话) is a podcast in Mandarin produced by the three of us.
