Pig, Palazzo di Cozzo and The Killing of Two Lovers (Movie Squad Podcast #41)

Go hog wild: the latest episode of the Movie Squad pod is here!

In their latest episode, Squad-mates Simon Miraudo and Cecilia Allen (filling in for Tristan Fidler, on assignment) cover a couple new cinema releases with Breakfast host Taylah Strano.

First up, Simon sniffs out Pigthe newest (for now) film starring Nicolas Cage. In it, he plays a retired chef living in the Oregon wilderness with his prized truffle pig, who returns to the big city when the pig is abducted. However, what begins as a John Wick-styled journey of revenge becomes a meditation on the natural world and a satire of the food industry.

Next, Cecilia examines the Aussie doco Palazzo di Cozzo, all about Sicilian immigrant and Melbourne icon Franco Cozzo, and his baroque homewares empire. Does the documentary have the same ‘wow’ factor as Cozzo’s furniture? Listen in to find out.

Finally, we throw in a review from back in July, when The Killing of Two Lovers played the Revelation Perth International Film Festival. With the movie now arriving in Australian cinemas, it’s worth hearing Tristan and Simon’s coverage of what they call one of the best films of the year. (You can also catch Jeff Bullen‘s interview with director Robert Machoian in the latest episode of Rewind.)
