We return to our favourite debate: monogamy vs. polyamory. This time with love triangles as the point of entry.
We discuss new release Passages' somewhat bleak version of the shape, and look back at more optimistic portrayals, including Woody Allen's Spanish holiday fantasy Vicky, Cristina, Barcelona and the pre-code shocker Design For Living.
Lily also gives the lowdown on (the auteur behind The Room) Tommy Wiseau's new release, Big Shark.
