A Complete Unknown and All We Imagine as Light (Movie Squad Podcast #198)
How does it feel… to get a new episode of the Movie Squad pod?
It’s a chock-a-block instalment, with Tristan Fidler and Simon Miraudo reviewing two films on Breakfast with Pamela Boland, followed by two bonus pod-exclusive reviews and an interview with Golden Globe-nominated director Payal Kapadia!
First, after a quick Oscar nomination round-up, Tristan and Pam review A Complete Unknown, the Bob Dylan biopic directed by James Mangold (Walk The Line, Logan) and starring Timothee Chalamet as the revolutionary folk singer.
Then, Simon covers All We Imagine As Light, the hugely acclaimed new film from director Payal Kapadia, all about young nurses navigating their romantic lives and cultural pressures in modern Mumbai.
Keep listening for Simon’s conversation with Payal, where they talk about her internal conflict over kitchen appliances, and why the film opens with a strange explanation that the film is not endorsed by a nun.
Plus, in the pod-only segment, Tristan shares his thoughts on the Andrew Garfield/Florence Pugh weepy We Live in Time, while both Blockbuster Babes chime in with their thoughts on the Colman Domingo drama Sing Sing.
A Complete Unknown and We Live in Time are now in cinemas. All We Imagine as Light and Sing Sing play the Perth Festival.
