Ep. 216: Beatrice Loayza and Adam Nayman on May December, Zone of Interest, Knock at the Cabin, Fallen Leaves, and more

Welcome to The Last Thing I Saw with your host, Nicolas Rapold! As we approach the end of the year, I bring together a wonderful pair of critics who have appeared together here before: Adam Nayman (The Ringer) and Beatrice Loayza (The New York Times). In the spirit of the season, I asked them about their favorite movies of 2023, from Todd Haynes’s May December to M. Night Shyamalan’s Knock at the Cabin and Aki Kaurismaki’s Fallen Leaves, and we reflect on Jonathan Glazer’s confronting The Zone of Interest. Adam and Beatrice also share their favorite first watches from the year.
