Polite Society

Yeah, yeah.

Polite Society was a good action comedy that came out in 2023.

That's so true.

Oh, yeah.

Um, that's really kind of getting into s-some of that nitty-gritty, but again, without answers, just trying to kind of put it all out there.

But I think what's really interesting actually is what's underneath that conversation is a personal relationship about, um, you know, th-their, they, uh, this is a conversation between my character Shah and his ex, Yasmin, played by the amazing Ritu Arya from Umbrella Academy and Polite Society.

And really what's going on there underneath the kind of sociopolitical think piece jousting is two ex-lovers who are trying to jab at each other and push and pull and look for validation and get one up on each other because they're hurt, because they both feel like the other has left them behind in some way.

And what was really important to me more than anything is that this show didn't exist in a conceptual space.
