Happy Valentine's Day!
To celebrate the holiday in this episode Jeff and Shanna count down their favorite movies about break-ups. We considered not movies that end in a break-up, rather those that are either about a break-up or where the plot is incited by a break-up. 

Next time on The Movie Lovers podcast: we start another 3-episode cycle with The Week in Review. We'll talk about what movies and TV shows we've been watching lately. Look for it on Tuesday, 2/21.

They say you know when you meet the one.

The moment Eva locked eyes with James over a library bookshelf, she knew she’d found her soulmate. Over ten years, they fell in love, got married and made plans to start a family. Until everything changed one Christmas three years ago, and they’ve been drifting apart ever since.

Eva hopes a friend’s Christmas party at an old manor house in Cornwall will give them the chance to reconnect… but the last thing she expects is to wake up on Christmas morning in the body of a different guest. As Eva’s forced to keep reliving Christmas Day from the perspectives of those closest to her, she realises just how much her life has fallen off track.

But can Eva break the cycle and save her future with James, before it’s too late?

One Christmas Morning, By Rachel Greenlaw, Read by Ashley Tucker

In this piece, choices are never truly made. They are not alternatives to be selected, but overlapping states that generate themselves — each time — as parallel realities. They coexist — like in the principle of superposition — opposite decisions that do not cancel each other out, but flow together in the same sonic space.
It is a journey through a quantum dimension of listening, where every possibility remains open, suspended.
The sound accompanying this landscape is a real sample: the recorded clicking of my car’s turn signal — a signal that, outside its usual context, stops pointing and starts oscillating. A rhythm, a doubt.

Irene Ranaldo: Exploring the Intersection of Artistry and Technology


Irene Ranaldo, born on November 3, 1982, in Benevento, is a multifaceted artist whose journey embodies a profound curiosity for diverse disciplines including science, nature, mathematics, music, and the arts. Graduating from a scientific high school in 2001, Irene embarked on a parallel path, immersing herself in the world of music through private piano lessons with maestro Patrizio Bromuro. Simultaneously, she delved into the intricacies of violin under the tutelage of Raffaele Tiseo.


While pursuing a degree in Computer Engineering, Irene navigated the terrain of Information Technology, honing her skills in areas such as security, web development, and database management. Despite her professional engagements, Irene remained deeply connected to her musical aspirations, often collaborating with friends and exploring new compositions.


Her artistic odyssey blossomed with creations like "Vola Janara" and "Lockdown," both registered with SIAE, reflecting her profound exploration of electronic music and its emotive potential. Currently, Irene is immersed in the second year of a two-year Electronic Music program at the Nicola Sala Conservatory in Benevento, further enriching her artistic repertoire with a seamless fusion of technical proficiency and musical fervor.
