About this listen
In our debut episode of Your Reel Friends, we take a deep dive into Spike Lee’s Highest to Lowest, a film that’s as layered as the industry it critiques.
We unpack themes of conditional compassion, where care only extends so far; the dangers of parasocial relationships that blur admiration and obsession; and the shifting landscape of art in the digital age, where streaming and AI threaten to bleed out the soul of music.
Along the way, we explore questions of power, survival, and what Black art really costs in a world built to consume it. This isn’t just a film review, it’s a conversation about life, love, and legacy.
Because with your real friends, we don’t just watch movies. We talk about what they leave behind.
