Welcome to The Last Thing I Saw, with your host, Nicolas Rapold. The 2021 Venice Film Festival series of podcasts continues with a deluxe installment featuring Glenn Kenny, a New York Times and RogerEbert.com contributor. It’s Glenn’s first time on the podcast and he makes up for lost time with a feast of movies: Dune from Denis Villeneuve, Almodóvar’s Parallel Mothers, Paul Schrader’s The Card Counter, The Cathedral (a sample selection from the Biennale-funded section), and documentary on an outré horror filmmaker, Inferno Rosso: Joe D’Amato on the Road of Excess.
