The Iron Claw, All of Us Strangers & The Zone of Interest (Movie Squad Podcast #151)
With Tristan Fidler away on special assignment, Simon Miraudo and Brekky host Pam Boland are joined by Movie Squad first-timer Lucy Rutherford for three huge reviews!
First up, Simon reviews Sean Durkin’s true sports tearjerker, The Iron Claw, all about the doomed (and possibly cursed) Von Erich wrestling family, and wonders if the Zac Efron Oscars snub was maybe more significant than any perceived slights against Barbie.
Then, Lucy leads a review of All of Us Strangers, starring Andrew Scott, Paul Mescal, Jamie Bell and Claire Foy. It brought Pam to tears… but did Simon and Lucy feel the same?
Both films are now in cinemas.
Stay tuned for a pod-exclusive review of The Zone of Interest, which picked up five Oscar nods and documents a Nazi family living just outside the gates of the Auschwitz concentration camp. It plays the Perth Festival from Jan 29 to Feb 4.
