On this doggish episode of Oeuvre Busters, Liam and George invite Joyce Wu to discuss Stray Dog (1949), directed by Akira Kurosawa and starring, of course, Toshiro Mifune. Topics discuss? Horniness; isolation, alienation, AND ennui; the shadow-self; people are bad; ACAB, have a beer; sucking popsicles. Also, Kurosawa can direct the shit out of anything.

Topics not discussed? The origins of the bicameral mind.

Joyce Wu is a writer and director based in Los Angeles. She was an inaugural member of the Made in NY Writers Room, a fellowship developed by the WGA East in partnership with the NYC Mayor’s Office of Media and Entertainment, where she developed and wrote a half-hour comedy pilot based on her web series Mr. Right. Her first feature film She Lights Up Well is currently available on iTunes.
