The White Lotus

In honour of the season finale airing this Sunday December 11th, today’s episode is all about my obsession with The White Lotus. If you’re not familiar with the show, it follows idyllic vacationers during a weeklong stay at a White Lotus hotel, this season being in Sicily. The episodes begin with relaxed, privileged guests and each week peels back dark layers in some of the most thrilling character development I’ve ever watched. It explores themes of fantasy, lust, affairs, dysfunctional relationships and eventually death. Major kudos to writer/director Mike White for his epic attention to details, his intentional storytelling, but also his many nods to various iconic film scenes from the ages. And bless the internet for catching so many details and clues that often go right over my head!

I have scoured reddit and tiktok for all the various thoughts and theories and share everything here. I would love for you to take a listen and share your thoughts with me on instagram at @findingsparklechasinglight and my personal account @nicolebreanne. Oh, and I’m trying to share more of my love for pop culture over on tiktok, so follow me there for more!
