605: "Apple Vision Cerebro" | Strange Days (1995)


Listen Later

Virtual reality, Y2K paranoia, and noir-drenched chaos—it’s all wired into Kathryn Bigelow’s Strange Days (1995). Ralph Fiennes plays a black-market memory dealer caught in a web of murder, conspiracy, and past trauma, while Angela Bassett brings the fire as a bodyguard with a conscience (and some serious action chops). Set in the final hours of 1999, the film is a pulsing, POV-shot thrill ride through a dystopian Los Angeles, where technology lets you feel someone else’s memories—and the truth is more dangerous than anything on tape. It's messy, bold, and weirdly ahead of its time.
