  • Summary

  • It’s the UConn Popcast, and “The Beast” is a 2023 sci fi / romance movie by French director Bertrand Bonello, in which artificial intelligence has determined that human emotions are a danger, and must be surgically controlled.

The Beast stars Lea Seydoux and George McKay. Learn more about your ad choices.
