On this special BONUS episode, Nick is joined by roommate and friend Kareem. They watched the 2015 Denis Villeneuve crime thriller: Sicario. The two of them watching movies last semester was a major source of inspiration for this show, and Kareem has been a long-requested guest. In this episode, they discuss the structure and dialogue of the script, the significance of where and when they show violence, Roger Deakins' cinematography, the score from the late Johann Johannson, the balance between good and evil and how it's represented, Kate Macy's lack of growth and arc over the film, how Taylor Sheridan's script subverts normal film tropes, how this film ranks with Denis Villeneuve's other films, and much more.
