Nicolas Cage has been on a tear lately. From standout performances in "Pig," "Dream Scenario," "Longlegs," and "The Unbearable Weight of Massive Talent" to now "The Surfer," the Oscar-winner is once again redefining his career with bold, unpredictable choices. Directed by Lorcan Finnegan ("Vivarium," "Nocebo"), "The Surfer" is a sun-bleached fever dream about masculinity, ego, and unraveling identity that veers from the poetic to the primal.

In the latest episode of The Discourse, Cage and Finnegan join the show to talk about the emotional depths of their surreal new film, which hits theaters on May 2nd.
