#656: Wonderstruck / Killing of a Sacred Deer / Faces Places
« on: November 10, 2017, 11:56:15 AM »


With a deluge of great stuff heading to theaters over the next couple of weeks, Adam and Josh devote this week’s show to the latest from three great directors: Todd Haynes ("Carol," "Far From Heaven") brings his experimental rigor to the adaptation of Brian Selznick's novel-with-pictures WONDERSTRUCK; former Golden Brick-winner Yorgos Lanthimos delivers Kubrick-inspired horror with THE KILLING OF A SACRED DEER; and the 89-year-old French New Wave pioneer Agnes Varda ends a decade-long hiatus with her joyful new doc FACES PLACES. Plus, results from the latest Filmspotting Death Match.

Listen here.

Just a quickie for the notes and corrections team. Sir Kenneth Charles "Chuckles" Branagh was made a Knight Bachelor of the Realm in 2012. Will you be firing the fact-checking intern?!  ;)

Ha! We can't be held responsible for off the cuff remarks. :)
