Tune in as Joe Lipsett (Horror Queers, Hazel & Katniss & Harry & Starr) collaborates with Arthur for a breakdown of The Gift, the 2015 stalker thriller that takes an interestingly slow-burn and grounded approach to its own subgenre. The topics that get coverage include the movie’s knack for subtle foreshadowing, the fleshed-out performances from the leading trio (including Rebecca Hall, who deserves so much more love from us as a society), and the pitfalls of politeness.
Written and directed by Joel Edgerton, The Gift stars Jason Bateman, Rebecca Hall, Joel Edgerton, Allison Tolman, Tim Griffin, Busy Philipps, David Denman, Nash Edgerton, Katie Aselton, and P.J. Byrne.
Spoilers start at 14:20
