Claire begins with the origins of sorcery in the Mediterranean. From there she covers the evolving relationship between Witchcraft and Christianity (surprise: it used to be good), and places the Puritan view in context. Kyle delves into the production, and how hard Robert Eggers worked to portray a detailed picture of Puritan fear. Our hosts finish with a few thoughts on the film’s performance’s, language, and creativity within limitations.
