Ethan and Talia discuss Jonathan Glazer’s 2013 film Under the Skin. How beautiful but cold art can still be a favourite film; seeing the human race from a National Geographic perspective; and the strange intensity of a sex scene with Scarlett Johansson by a non-professional actor, only playing the part because he owned the house that was the filming location.
