Mailbag 9: "Intimate in a Hole"

In this episode, we attempt to answer some listener questions about Portrait of a Lady on Fire!

Is the minimalism in costume and set design because it's mostly a memory?
Are Marianne and Héloïse's fathers both dead?
Is to be free to be alone?
Why do Héloïse and Marianne hide in the cave to kiss?

And a bonus question!

If you could only have one for the rest of your life - fries or chips? (Includes all varieties.)
