 Popcorn Culture - Throwback: Reality Bites

Ben Stiller's directorial debut, Reality Bites was a slice of life dramedy, exploring the relationships, careers and issues of a group of 20-somethings in the 90s. It also gave the world an iconic character, in the form of Ethan Hawke's Troy Dyer, and has become a cult favourite in the years since its release. In this episode of Throwback, we talk about the experience of watching this film close to three decades after it premiered, and whether it's still relatable.
