Episode 278: Babylon - Glass Onion


Listen Later

Josh is joined by recurring guest Fred Kolb for a double feature. First, (Beginning-58:40) they visit Old Hollywood and discuss Damien Chazelle’s newest film, “Babylon,” and whether his 3+ hour epic that captured the film industry’s transition from silent to talking pictures was too bloated, whether it effectively made the case that today’s movies owe a big debt to movies of that era, the performances from Brad Pitt and Margot Robbie, its technical achievements and much more! Then (58:42-End), they discuss Rian Johnson’s “Glass Onion: A Knives Out Mystery” and how the structure of its mystery differed from that of its predecessor, how the only returning actor, Daniel Craig, modulated his performance differently, Johnson’s commentary on the 1%, the performances from the rest of the loaded cast including Janelle Monáe and Dave Bautista and much more! Spoilers for Babylon start at 44:51.
