IN THIS EPISODE…
Movies are meant to be for conversation. Marriage Story is a movie that opens up the conversation wide. They say that life can imitate art. For writer-director, Noah Baumbach, the journey and therapy that made 2019’s Marriage Story possible – had to have been incredibly difficult. Noah isn’t the only one who can be inspired. The movie, Marriage Story, left me with a question – what is the correlation between our own mental health and marriage or divorce? In this first, of two, part series, we’re sitting down with a marriage counselor to ask just those question. How does marriage positively affect the mental health of a spouse? How do the actions of one affect the mental health of the other? All these questions and more in this intimate episode of Victims and Villains!
