Is it a good movie if you have to watch it ten times? That's the question Chris and Daniel keep circling back to as they take on Christopher Nolan's The Odyssey, skipping the marketing noise and the wireframe-cyclops conspiracy theories to actually ask whether the thing works as a film. They dig into what Nolan is doing as a filmmaker, structurally and emotionally, in his adaptation of the oldest story in Western literature, and why a three hour runtime built around a decade-long wait might be the whole point rather than a flaw. The real conversation is about adaptation itself: what happens when a director spends the entire movie making an audience feel exactly what an intractable wait feels like, and why Nolan's obsession with time connects everything from Memento through Tenet to this one. Daniel makes the case that Nolan has finally figured out how to deliver Tenet's disorienting rewatch effect without forcing anyone to actually rewatch anything. Chris and Daniel also compare Nolan's spectacle-forward approach to what a Denis Villeneuve version might have looked like, and get into why single-vision directors are becoming Hollywood's new IP.

New studio set up: the squad now records from a parked Tesla in the middle of a rainstorm while Sam is on the beach, and somehow it turned into one of our favorite episodes. We break down Meta's new AI campaign, Zuckerberg's vision for AI, why more than 1,000 frontier AI researchers are asking Washington to slow development, and whether fear has become the easiest narrative in tech. Then we get into China cracking deep ultraviolet lithography, what it means for ASML and the AI race, why AI demand still isn't slowing, Lilian Weng's move from Thinking Machines to OpenAI, and Sam's theory that Silicon Valley has developed an Oppenheimer complex.Chapters:0:00 Episode trailer1:23 Episode start9:02 Meta's Ad Campaign Rejects The Doomers11:14 Zuckerberg's Optimism Blitz Actually Lands13:11 AI's Dark Side Raises Easier Money15:04 Sam's Bot Read 4GB Of Dad's Journals17:28 Nobody Wants To Be Anthropic18:56 Anthropic Runs On Spite For OpenAI21:10 OpenAI Was The Original Evil Empire22:57 Meta Is Still A Centralized Ad Company24:46 Decentralization Loses Without A Jedi26:01 Apple Won On Politics, Not Technology27:16 Meta Earnings Miss On Lawsuits And Severance28:33 China Cracks DUV, ASML Takes The Hit29:57 Execs Privately Reject The China AI War32:39 The Compute Debate Gavin Baker Started39:13 X Is The Tech Town Square Now46:57 Lilian Weng Quits For Health, Joins OpenAI53:50 AI Is A Crisis Of Meaning54:57 Book The Conference Before You're InvitedWe're also on ↓X: https://twitter.com/moreorlesspodInstagram: https://instagram.com/moreorlessYouTube: https://youtu.be/PBGC6CjfdtMConnect with us here:1) Sam Lessin: https://x.com/lessin2) Dave Morin: https://x.com/davemorin3) Jessica Lessin: https://x.com/Jessicalessin4) Brit Morin: https://x.com/brit

We wrestle with the moral cost of war through a modern Odyssey lens, especially what it means to see the divine image in people you might be ordered to kill. We ask whether “necessary” violence can ever be clean, and why the ones who protect everyone else often carry scars the rest of us never have to bear. • Athena's beheading as a symbol of desecration and conscience • war as ugly even when defense feels necessary • Zeus's law of hospitality set against survival and self-defense • the fog of war and our limited moral vision • Plato's Euthyphro as a test for confident moral claims • the “dark knight” role and taking blame for the public good • Oppenheimer parallels and the burden of consequential choices • film critique on flattened characters while still recommending it Please, if you're enjoying this content, give this video a like, hit that subscribe button, and most importantly, if you can, ring that bell. You can go see the full thing over on our Patreon right now.

A FILM! TWO CRITICS! A THOUGHT! A TALK! TO BREAK THE DISCOURSE OF NOLAN!After a decades-long journey of seeing Christopher Nolan's hot new Odyssey on the biggest available IMAX screen they could find, Joshicus and Andrewussy return to give their blessing over his take on the millennia-old tale. Tackling such a dense beast of a film, they get into Nolan's method of modernizing his adaptation, applying the biggest scope a 70mm IMAX camera could bring, and a lecture on Greek mythology and history by Professor Andrew. Follow Zeus's Law as our hosts decide if The Odyssey is a worthy step-up for Nolan or a rocky improvement in comparison to the rest of his films (Thankfully, it's not as horny as Oppenheimer). Next, they have One More Thing, recommending Parisian film tour Ciné-Balade (that's "ciné-walk," for the record, Josh) and customizable keyboard brand Lemokey.Next week, Josh and Andrew travel up the border to Canada and take a look at Sophy Romvari's acclaimed directorial debut Blue Heron.

Oppenheimer immediately established itself as one of the most important films in recent cinema. And after multiple viewings and further analysis, that belief has only grown stronger.Christopher Nolan has created far more than an entertaining and visually extraordinary epic about the brilliant scientist J. Robert Oppenheimer, whose work helped develop the atomic bomb that the United States ultimately used against Japan during the final days of the Second World War. This is also a film about opening the proverbial tube of toothpaste—releasing something that can never be put back—and forever changing the world as we know it.Nolan's masterful direction, the brilliant performances from the entire ensemble—including Cillian Murphy in the title role, Emily Blunt, Robert Downey Jr., Matt Damon, and many others—the exceptional cinematography and editing, and a story that remains as relevant today as ever all combine to make Oppenheimer a truly special, haunting, and powerful cinematic achievement.But looking back, was Oppenheimer truly deserving of the Best Picture Oscar among all the films released in 2023?Listen and find out what film critic Jack Ferdman thinks—and which film he ultimately chooses as his Rewatching Oscar winner for the year.Download, listen, and share ALL Rewatching Oscar episodes.SUBSCRIBE and FOLLOW Rewatching Oscar:Website: https://rewatchingoscar.buzzsprout.comApple Podcasts/iTunesSpotifyGoogle PodcastsiHeart RadioPodchaserPodcast AddictTuneInAlexaAmazon Overcasts Podcast Addict Player FMRSS Feed: https://feeds.buzzsprout.com/1815964.rssWebsite: https://rewatchingoscar.buzzsprout.comSocial Media Links: Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn, Instagram, BlueSkyShare your thoughts and suggestions with us through:Facebook Messenger or email us atjack@rewatchingoscar.com or jackferdman@gmail.comMusic by TurpacShow Producer: Jack FerdmanPodcast Logo Design: Jack FerdmanMovie (audio) trailer courtesy of MovieClips Classic TrailersMovie (audio) clips courtesy of YouTubeSupport us by downloading, sharing, and giving us a 5-star Rating.  It helps our podcast continue to reach many people and make it available to share more episodes with everyone.Send us Fan Mail

One of our longest episodes ever in which we review the movie of the summer: Christopher Nolan's The Odyssey. We discuss the filmmaker's ongoing battle with his inner clinician, an updated ranking of the filmography, and the odd right-wing backlash facing the movie. Nolan continues from 2023's Oppenheimer his reflection of our own cracked modernity and its broad gesture towards the death of civility, but does The Odyssey maintain its predecessor's craft and evocative core? Tune in and find out.

Concebida como filme espectáculo, superproducción y aventura definitiva, La Odisea de Nolan es también algo más: una película realizada casi totalmente con recursos analógicos —material en fílmico, efectos ópticos y prácticos, escenografía construida a mano— en una era donde gran parte del proceso cinematográfico se ha vuelto plenamente digital. Más allá de la sorpresa que ello pueda causar a espectadores de siglo XXI (que han incorporado la artificialidad como parte natural de la experiencia fílmica), la pregunta es si acaso esta tremenda combinación de gigantismo, ambición y artesanía es capaz de decirnos algo acerca de la condición humana, el complejo y salvaje legado de la civilización occidental y la forma en que lidiamos con las consecuencias de nuestros actos, porque independiente de lo recaudado en taquilla, de lo debatido en las redes y de las opiniones de toda clase de expertos, eso es lo que parecen estar persiguiendo los cineastas con su filme. En ese sentido, La Odisea viene a ser el complemento lógico de Oppenheimer, ambas parte de un díptico que intenta enlazar presente y pasado, acercar algo que parece distante y ponerlo frente a nuestros ojos. De eso y más se discute en este podcast.

Christopher Nolan's The Odyssey brings one of history's oldest stories to the screen, but what does it reveal about myth, memory, and historical storytelling? Joined by renowned classicist Monica Cyrino, we explore Nolan's adaptation, revisit the ideas from our Oppenheimer episode about Nolan as a historian, and discuss why Homer continues to shape cinema nearly three thousand years later.

This episode starts with a wide-ranging conversation about Taco Bell, Jelly Roll, Tom Hanks' career decline, and other pop culture tangents before shifting into the main event: Alex and Cole ranking Christopher Nolan's films. The discussion turns into a passionate debate over movies like Inception, Memento, Interstellar, The Dark Knight, and Oppenheimer, with both hosts defending some surprisingly unpopular rankings while exploring what makes Nolan's storytelling so compelling. They close by comparing Oppenheimer to The Odyssey, arguing that Nolan's greatest films are ultimately about the burden and regret that come with humanity's greatest achievements.

¡Prepara el papoi, porque este episodio viene cargado de todo un poco! En este nuevo episodio del Langoy, Diego y Jonathan se sueltan en el Baje de Papoi Supremo, conversando sobre cine, streaming y cultura pop sin filtro. ¿Cómo se compara La Odisea de Nolan con Oppenheimer, y por qué Cinemark XD le gana a IMAX en relación calidad-precio? ¿Es Disclosure Day la decepción del año, y qué tan lejos queda de El Código Da Vinci? ¿Vale la pena Masters of the Universe? ¿El hartazgo con Spider-Man y el MCU ya no tiene vuelta atrás? ¿Qué joyitas trae la programación del Festival de Cine de Lima? ¿Y cómo ha cambiado el streaming la forma en que vivimos hasta los eventos deportivos? Todas esas preguntas y más serán resueltas en este episodio. Si les gustó este episodio, déjenlo saber en los comentarios.

Christopher Nolan's The Odyssey is a genuine cultural moment — but could it become the most-nominated film in Oscar history? Dylan and Craig break down the full awards race case for The Odyssey, including whether it can beat Sinners' all-time record of 16 nominations, how the Anne Hathaway lead-vs-supporting decision could push the count to 17, and what history says about Ben-Hur's blueprint for blockbuster Oscar dominance.They also debate every major performance — Robert Pattinson vs. John Leguizamo for Best Supporting Actor, why Tom Holland is the weak link, and the one category (costume design?) where The Odyssey might shockingly miss.

Does Christopher Nolan have a pattern when it comes to writing women? In this episode of Middle Row with Coco Mocoe, we analyze Nolan's adaptation of The Odyssey through a feminist film lens—examining how his female characters often act as emotional vessels, plot catalysts, and symbols of male regret. Drawing from Sverre Sigfussion's thesis, "Noir Guilt Complex: The Death of Women as a Catalyst for Character Development," we look back at films like Inception, The Dark Knight, The Prestige, and Oppenheimer, and map those character tropes onto The Odyssey's key female figures: Penelope (Anne Hathaway), Circe (Samantha Morton), Calypso, and Athena.

Alicent and Helaena search for a way out of the city, Alys Rivers tightens her hold over a recovering Aemond, and Ormund begins positioning Daeron as a rival king. Meanwhile, Criston Cole marches toward what looks increasingly like an elaborate suicide-by-Riverlander, while a bloody “feast for traitors” makes it clear that Team Black has enemies hiding everywhere.

Xavier's unhealthy habit of repeatedly simulating Magneto's death helps transform the training system into a very real threat, forcing the mutants to confront what their home has become. Meanwhile, Xavier launches X-Corp as the team's new public-facing operation, while Apocalypse completes a resurrection that turns an old friend into something much more dangerous.

His journey becomes a years-long battle against monsters, gods, temptation, grief, and his own worst instincts, while the family he left behind struggles against the suitors consuming his kingdom. Christopher Nolan turns Homer's foundational epic into a massive, brooding survival story about war, memory, loyalty, and the consequences of being the cleverest man in every room. Main Cast: Matt Damon as Odysseus Tom Holland as Telemachus Anne Hathaway as Penelope Robert Pattinson as Antinous Lupita Nyong'o as Helen of Troy and Clytemnestra Zendaya as Athena Charlize Theron as Calypso Samantha Morton as Circe Jon Bernthal as Menelaus Benny Safdie as Agamemnon John Leguizamo as Eumaeus Himesh Patel as Eurylochus Ellen Page as Sinon Mia Goth as Melantho Production Notes: The Odyssey reunites Christopher Nolan with producer Emma Thomas and the Syncopy team behind Oppenheimer. Nolan wrote, directed, and produced the film, which was shot around the world and became the first feature photographed entirely with IMAX film cameras. The production built much of its ancient world practically and mounted a full-scale, globe-spanning shoot designed to make Odysseus' voyage feel physical, dangerous, and appropriately enormous.

When The Dark Knight Rises came out in 2012, expectations were sky high. After all, Christopher Nolan had shattered all box office records and blown critics away with The Dark Knight… what would he be doing now to dazzle audiences everywhere?  Maybe it's inevitable that the reception would be mixed. For the first time in his career, a Nolan movie was given generally negative reviews. And while it ultimately made more money worldwide than The Dark Knight did, it didn't become the biggest movie of all time. Earlier that year, in fact, The Avengers had pulled that off, and the Marvel Cinematic Universe's reign had officially begun. Nolan said the only reason he would ever consider making a sequel to The Dark Knight was if he came up with a story that was so good it justified its own existence. So… does The Dark Knight Rises do that? Laci thinks so; Matt doesn't. In this episode, 1-Week Rental takes you behind the scenes of The Dark Knight Rises to give you the story of how Nolan developed this idea along with his collaborator David Goyer and his brother Jonah. Then, how Bane was selected as the villain, and how world events like Occupy Wall Street gave the film a fortuitous sense of timing. But is Nolan giving himself too much credit by saying Bane foreshadowed Donald Trump? What exactly is Nolan saying in this movie, anyway? And is he trying to say one thing but accidentally saying something else, instead? Then, Laci and Matt review The Dark Knight Rises. Is Bane ultimately a letdown? Would the Joker have made more sense carrying out Bane's exact plan? Anne Hathaway is excellent as Selina Kyle, but does her character make sense? And is Marion Cotillard as "Miranda Tate" the least developed of all of Nolan's female characters? All this and more in a supersized episode as the podcast concludes its coverage of Nolan's trilogy of Batman films.   Watch Matt's video about The Road to El Dorado: https://youtu.be/y5x3zDnjXrg  Watch this Dark Knight Rises podcast in full on YouTube: https://youtube.com/@1weekrental  Get more 1-Week Rental on Patreon: https://patreon.com/1weekrental  Next episode: We're off on July 31, but we shall return on August 7, 2026 with an episode about Interstellar (2014)!   The Summer of Nolan is our summer 2026 miniseries covering the movie career of Christopher Nolan through nine movies on the main feed (plus additional episodes on the Patreon!), presented in chronological order, starting with Memento and going through Oppenheimer.

Tem gente saindo do cinema enjoada. De verdade. E não é reclamação sobre o roteiro, é o corpo reagindo à escala monumental do IMAX de 70mm que Christopher Nolan usou para filmar A Odisseia do início ao fim, algo inédito na história do cinema de ficção. Nolan foi ao mar aberto, filmou em condições reais e conseguiu deixar até a própria equipe passando mal entre uma tomada e outra.Matt Damon interpreta um Odisseu que os debatedores comparam a um "Oppenheimer de armadura", um homem assombrado pela culpa de ter criado uma arma que mudou a guerra para sempre. Mas o que mais gerou barulho nas redes antes da estreia foram as escolhas de elenco: Lupita Nyong'o como Helena de Tróia, Elliot Page como Sinon e Travis Scott como um bardo grego. Cada uma dessas decisões carrega uma justificativa que vale a pena ouvir com atenção.Rafael Arinelli, Wesley Ferreira e Rafael Gonzaga discutem os efeitos práticos de A Odisseia, os paralelos com toda a filmografia de Nolan, e uma crítica que não pode ficar de fora: as mulheres do poema original ficaram mesmo à altura na tela?Prepare o estômago e vá com tudo.• 05m56: Pauta Principal• 1h20m25: Plano Detalhe• 1h31m15: EncerramentoOuça nosso Podcast também no:• Spotify: https://cinemacao.short.gy/spotify• Apple Podcast: https://cinemacao.short.gy/apple• Android: https://cinemacao.short.gy/android• Deezer: https://cinemacao.short.gy/deezer• Amazon Music: https://cinemacao.short.gy/amazonAgradecimentos aos padrinhos: • André Marinho Moreira• Bruna Mercer• Charles Calisto Souza• Daniel Barbosa da Silva Feijó• Diego Alves Lima• Eloi Xavier• Guilherme S.

Los cambios del oscarizado director en la epopeya griega indignan a los puristas. Hablamos de este nuevo clásico con el escritor Javier Negrete. En esta nueva entrega del pódcast Par Impar emitida en esRadio, los presentadores Juanma González y Dani Palacios, junto al escritor y especialista Javier Negrete, analizan una muy peculiar adaptación cinematográfica de La Odisea que supuestamente ha dirigido el cineasta Christopher Nolan. Los contertulios destripan esta hipotética superproducción con un tono cargado de humor y crítica, comparando la visión de Nolan con el mito clásico de Homero. La conversación se centra inicialmente en las decisiones técnicas y narrativas de la película, destacando el uso obsesivo del formato IMAX por parte de Nolan. Este sistema, aunque visualmente imponente, dificulta enormemente la filmación de las coreografías de combate en espacios cerrados. Los presentadores comparan este estilo con el de la película Troya, dirigida por Wolfgang Petersen, donde los enfrentamientos entre Brad Pitt y Eric Bana alcanzaron una cota de realismo y espectacularidad difícil de superar. Uno de los temas clave del debate es la representación de la ley de Zeus o la hospitalidad griega (xenia), un elemento sagrado en los poemas homéricos. El invitado Javier Negrete, autor de la novela Odisea editada por HarperCollins, explica cómo en la película de Nolan este concepto se simplifica para convertirlo en una suerte de justificación moral para la matanza final de los pretendientes, adaptándolo al estilo oscuro y denso del director. En cuanto al reparto, destaca la elección de Matt Damon para encarnar a un Ulises que se aleja del héroe astuto clásico para mostrarse como un soldado traumatizado y consumido por la culpa tras la caída de Troya, un enfoque muy en la línea de producciones como Oppenheimer. La actriz Anne Hathaway asume el papel de Penélope, logrando dotar de gran carga dramática a sus escenas frente a un joven Telémaco interpretado por Tom Holland. La película no escatima en licencias creativas y polémicas, como la inclusión del personaje de Sinón, interpretado por Elliot Page, que pertenece en realidad al ciclo troyano de la Eneida de Virgilio. Por su parte, la actriz Zendaya da vida a una Atenea que en esta versión no es una deidad física, sino una representación psicológica de la mala conciencia del protagonista, un recurso muy habitual en la filmografía de Nolan. La mitología fantástica se reinterpreta bajo un prisma de terror y ciencia ficción. El Cíclope es retratado como un gigante mutante con una deformidad ocular vertical, un diseño que combina efectos prácticos con CGI y que recuerda al Grendel de la película Beowulf de Robert Zemeckis. Del mismo modo, la escena de Circe —interpretada por Samantha Morton— se transforma en un pasaje de body horror donde los hombres se convierten en cerdos mediante impactantes efectos físicos. Finalmente, el análisis de la secuencia de las Sirenas y el regreso a Ítaca desvela la maestría de Nolan en el uso del recurso sonoro, ensordeciendo el ambiente para resaltar la música mientras los marineros usan cera en los oídos. Para cerrar la emisión, los presentadores repasan otras adaptaciones populares de la obra, como la comedia O Brother, Where Art Thou? de los hermanos Coen o la mítica versión teatral de El Joglars en los años setenta, concluyendo que esta original propuesta consigue acercar la literatura clásica al gran público.

NOLAN WEEK continues....Adapted from the legendary tale written by Homer, this is the epic tale of one man's treacherous journey home after leading a war effort which has left both him and his men broken and continuously in danger. That war was the Trojan War and the man is Odysseus (Oscar-winner Matt Damon) who yearns to get to his home country of Ithaca where he is king, so that he can reunite with this wife Penelope (Oscar-winner Anne Hathaway) and his son Telemachus (Tom Holland).....or DOES he??  And along the way of this journey, Odysseus and his men will encounter several otherwordly threats Calypso (Oscar-winner Charlize Theron), Circe (Oscar-nominee Samantha Morton) and the Cyclops (Bill Irwin).  This is the latest big budget production from Oscar-winning writer/director Christopher Nolan (The Dark Knight, Memento, Inception) as a follow-up to his beloved Best Picture winner Oppenheimer from three years ago.  Also included among the stellar, extended cast are Robert Pattinson, Oscar-winner Lupita Nyong'o, Jon Bernthal, John Leguizamo, Corey Hawkins, Himesh Patel, Mia Goth, and Emmy-winner Zendaya.  Let's find out if it's time to.....DEFY THE GODS.  Host & Editor: Geoff GershonProducer: Marlene Gershon Send us Fan MailSupport the showhttps://livingforthecinema.com/Facebook:https://www.facebook.com/Living-for-the-Cinema-Podcast-101167838847578Instagram:https://www.instagram.com/livingforthecinema/Letterboxd:https://letterboxd.com/Living4Cinema/ 

Send us Fan MailAngelo, Rhea, and Jay are back, and this week they're leading with a number Hollywood can't stop staring at: Christopher Nolan's The Odyssey stormed to a $264 million worldwide opening, and it's the first movie in history shot ENTIRELY on IMAX cameras. IMAX posted a record $52 million opening weekend and grabbed nearly a quarter of the entire domestic box office — the third-best share ever, behind only Nolan's own Interstellar and Oppenheimer. Is all-IMAX the future of movies, or does the fact that it can't scale prove the exact opposite?THEN: Off Angelo's Power Ballad review comes the debate that splits the room: Paul Rudd and Jason Bateman might be the same actor. Same lane, same dry everyman charm, same squeaky-clean off-screen reputation, with only a couple of exceptions each (Bateman went dark with Ozark, Rudd went blockbuster with Ant-Man). Two of the most bulletproof nice guys in the business — but who's actually had the better career? And who else lives in the "same character every single role" club?ALL THAT PLUS: VPNs explained, British Corner, and much MUCH more!MAKE SURE TO VISIT OUR SPONSOR: Steven Singer Jewelers!The TV Show is a weekly podcast hosted by Jay Black, with regular guests Angelo Cataldi and Rhea Hughes.

We break down our favorite moments from the $250 million IMAX spectacle, where the visuals blew us away, and the few narrative beats that felt a bit bloated. Beyond the movie itself, we discuss the unbelievable behind-the-scenes production—including how Nolan somehow wrapped filming ahead of schedule despite shooting entirely on custom heavy IMAX cameras—and debate where this massive historical adaptation ultimately lands in the pantheon of Nolan's filmography alongside Oppenheimer and The Dark Knight. ​ Then, we pivot to the absolute bombshell news shaking up the gaming industry: Xbox and Bethesda are finally getting forced out of auto-pilot! We break down how new Xbox CEO Asha Sharma has lit a fire under Bethesda, pushing them to officially clarify the status of their heavily anticipated pipeline. That means real updates on Fallout 5, the long-rumored Fallout 3 and New Vegas remasters, and where production currently stands with The Elder Scrolls VI. ​ To top it all off, Obsidian Entertainment has officially greenlit a brand-new Fallout project! We discuss the implications of shifting Obsidian back to the Wasteland, whether taking the IP out of sole BGS hands is the right move, and if this aggressive new direction is exactly what Xbox needs to reclaim its crown. Is this the strategy that finally turns the tide for Xbox? Tune in to find out!   ​

Welcome to NOLAN WEEK!Before reviewing his latest big budget opus (The Odyssey), let's revisit the beloved superhero sequel which helped push Oscar-winning writer/director Christopher Nolan (Inception, Oppenheimer, Dunkirk) into the pantheon of master modern filmmakers.  As a direct sequel to 2005's word-of-mouth hit Batman Begins, this was released with much fanfare as it was not only about the continuing adventures of Batman/Bruce Wayne (Christian Bale) but also the reintroduction of a classic villain who happpens to be the latest threat to his beloved home of Gotham City. :o This new threat is mysteriously known as the Joker (Oscar-winner Heath Ledger) who has been havoc around the city, not only terrifying citizens but even threatening local organized crime.  And what results is an epic battle for the soul of Gotham involving not only Batman and the Joker, but local law enforcement lead by Comissioner Jim Gordon (Oscar-winner Gary Oldman), District Attorney Harvey Dent (Aaron Eckart), and Assistant DA Rachel Dawes (Oscar-nominee Maggie Gyllenhaal).  Also co-starring at least two other Oscar-winners (Michael Caine, Morgan Freeman), this mega-smash would also receive eight Oscar nominations that year including two wins for Best Supporting Actor (Ledger) and Best Sound Editing - it would not only set a new bar for superhero movies moving forward but also action blockbusters.  Host & Editor: Geoff GershonProducer: Marlene Gershon Send us Fan MailSupport the showhttps://livingforthecinema.com/Facebook:https://www.facebook.com/Living-for-the-Cinema-Podcast-101167838847578Instagram:https://www.instagram.com/livingforthecinema/Letterboxd:https://letterboxd.com/Living4Cinema/

Yes, I will do an Odyssey show soon. I just don't want to sit anywhere for three hours. Until then, I keep getting asked about the Bronze Age Collapse. Fortunately, I already have a show about just that. It's from five years ago, it's a long scroll down the page, so I'm bumping it because I am, and have always been, way ahead of Nolan (I also did a show about Oppenheimer before he did.)

Christopher Nolan does not do anything small, so of course his Odyssey is shot entirely on IMAX film, scored on Bronze Age instruments, and staged with a sixty-foot practical Cyclops in an actual cave full of actual bees. Pete Wright, Tommy Metz III, Ocean Murff, and Steve Sarmento pull up an oar for The Film Board's monthly round-table to figure out what all that machinery is actually in service of — because the surprising thing about The Odyssey isn't the spectacle. It's that Nolan takes Homer's victory lap and turns it into a reckoning.Full spoilers throughout. The board digs into how the film reframes the hero: Matt Damon's Odysseus is a man who's very good at winning and increasingly sick about what winning costs, the Trojan Horse recast from clever trick to war crime, the whole story quietly asking whether "war hero" is a contradiction in terms. They get into Nolan the skeptic making a fantasy — the gods pushed to the psychological margins, Athena reimagined as guilt wearing Zendaya's face — and how a stacked cast (Anne Hathaway, Tom Holland, Charlize Theron, Samantha Morton, Robert Pattinson as a suitor you will genuinely want dead) grounds all the myth in something human.But the craft you guys… Ludwig Göransson's relentless, orchestra-free score built from gongs and scrap metal; the editing that makes a 172-minute movie move; the new camera Nolan had built and the reels that had to change every three minutes mid-scene. Steve saw it in the pristine 70mm format and comes back a little evangelized. Is a 98% Rotten Tomatoes score is earned or just the Nolan logo doing its work? What is the film is really saying about who we root for in a war? Plus, stick around past the credits for a genuine argument about whether the gods exist in this movie at all.The Film Board is a monthly round-table on new theatrical releases.

Bob and Brad drop a bonus episode to react to Christopher Nolan's The Odyssey — Bob's seen it twice and lays out a full theory of late-period Nolan as a career-long meditation on deception scaling from the individual (Memento) to the civilizational (Oppenheimer, now this), landing at 8.5/10. Brad went on a friend's fifteen-minute-notice invitation the night before, having just reread the poem, and comes in at 7/10 — arguing Nolan strips the Odyssey of its color and intimacy in service of a theme he calls narcissistic (that my generation broke the world for the next one). Both agree the cast is stacked but not showcased, that Circe's body horror rules, and that Hoyte van Hoytema's desaturated house style has now officially become a problem. Brad sips an Ardbeg Uigeadail in honor of Odysseus; Bob is drinking coffee because the movie kept him up too late.For longer episodes and special bonus content, consider joining our Patreon for as little as $3/mo!Film & Whiskey InstagramFilm & Whiskey FacebookFilm & Whiskey TwitterEmail us!Join our Discord server!For more episodes and engaging content, visit Film & Whiskey's website at www.filmwhiskey.com.

“The biggest risk in motion pictures is to not take a risk. You have to be putting it out there and offering people something new, and that's what will get them out of their houses.”Katie Razzall speaks to Oscar-winning filmmaker Christopher Nolan. The 55-year-old, whose directing credits include Inception, Interstellar and Oppenheimer, is widely considered one of the 21st century's most influential filmmakers.Born in London in 1970, his career began in the mid-1990s, when he would proofread scripts, operate cameras and direct for corporate information films. Barely a decade later, he was chosen to direct Christian Bale as Batman in The Dark Knight trilogy, setting a new standard for how superheroes were portrayed on screen.A string of blockbusters followed, making him one of the highest-grossing directors of all time, and was later knighted in 2024 for his services to film.He's now releasing his latest project, The Odyssey - an ambitious adaptation of Homer's ancient Greek story, starring a Hollywood A-List cast, including Matt Damon, Anne Hathaway and Zendaya.Thank you to the Culture team for their help in making this programme.

With the 4th of July in the rearview mirror, we are nearing (or past, depending on how you measure it) the midpoint of summer and for many of us, that means a little extra time to catch up on all the books, movies, and music that is being released this year. To break down the summer culture standouts, Chloe was joined in the studio by Vogue's Deputy Editor Taylor Antrim and Senior Fashion Writer Hannah Jackson.  The trio began by discussing the major sports moment that seems to be happening even more this summer than ever before. There's no shortage of sports to watch—the recent Knicks victory, the WNBA season, Wimbledon and the US Open, the World Cup, and the Tour de France. Taylor, who has been following the cycling, is most closely watching Tadej Pogačar (who apparently looks uncannily like his son) and Jonas Vingegaard, whose beautiful love story was covered in our I.W.W.T.H. column.  They then moved onto cinema. Taylor, as the resident horror watcher, shouted out the two big horror films that have stormed the summer box offices: Backrooms and Obsession, both directed by up and comers. Honorable mentions also went out to The Invite, a film they all saw and loved from Olivia Wilde, and Teenage Sex and Death at Camp Miasma from indie darling Jane Schoenbrun.  The movie with perhaps the most buzz at Vogue this summer is Christopher Nolan's upcoming remake of The Odyssey. “It's a thinking person's blockbuster,” Taylor joked. Though the panelists couldn't reach consensus on Oppenheimer, they are all jazzed about this pick (though Hannah is a little skeptical of Matt Damon as Odysseus). In keeping with the theme of Odyssey Summer, Chloe's been reading Greek myths to her children for bedtime stories and listening to the podcast Greeking Out. When not reading children's books, Chloe is excited about this summer's literary offerings, especially those featured in our beach reads story for the summer issue. Some of the picks they have previewed or are looking forward to include Pool House by Mary H.K. Choi, Contrapposto by Dave Eggers, Freedom Essays by Zinzi Clemmons, The Land and Its People by David Sedaris, The Palm House by Gwendolyn Riley, and Book of Hours by Ellen O'Connell Whittet.  It's also no secret that this has been yet another summer for the pop girls. Olivia Rodrigo's you seem pretty sad for a girl so in love is Hannah's favorite Olivia album yet. And the whole team is counting down the days until we get Gracie Abrams ,Charli XCX, and Phoebe Bridgers' new albums. And before they signed off, co-host Nicole Phelps shared a brief dispatch from the Fendi couture show in Rome! The Run-Through with Vogue is your go-to podcast where fashion meets culture. Hosted by Chloe Malle, Head of Editorial Content, Vogue U.S.; Chioma Nnadi, Head of British Vogue; and Nicole Phelps, Director of Vogue Runway, each episode features the latest fashion news and exclusive designer and celebrity interviews.

Matt Damon says playing Odysseus in the new movie The Odyssey was like nothing he has ever done before.  Damon is working again with famed Director Christopher Nolan after the Oscar-winning blockbusters Interstellar and Oppenheimer. Damon got together with Willie Geist to discuss the challenges of shooting this movie fully in IMAX, traveling to several remote locations and enduring the elements to tell Homer's epic saga.   Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.
