Ep. 182: Cannes #10 with Justin Chang on The Old Oak, Strange Way of Life, Sandra Huller 2x, Close Your Eyes

Welcome to The Last Thing I Saw. I’m your host, Nicolas Rapold. The 2023 Cannes series continues, with episodes that were recorded live in Cannes! For the latest discussion, I talk with critic Justin Chang of The Los Angeles Times about a batch of new films: Ken Loach’s The Old Oak, Pedro Almodóvar’s Strange Way of Life, and Erice’s Close Your Eyes. Plus, Chang talks about interviewing Sandra Hüller, who stars in both Justine Triet’s Palme d’Or winner Anatomy of a Fall and The Zone of Interest. Stay tuned for more episodes with a delightful array of brilliant critics.
