Listen "288: A24 Retrospective - Mojave"
Episode Synopsis
We continue our series going through the entire catalog of A24's films. On this episode we are looking at 2016's Mojave, directed by William Monahan. The film stars Garrett Hedlund as Tom, a depressed director who goes into the desert and ends up coming across Oscar Issac’s drifter Jack where they have a confrontation that continues back in LA. Joining the show is Matthew Simpson, one half of the Awesome Friday podcast.
Our double bill pairings include The Gift (Dakota's pick) and The Hateful Eight (Matthew's pick). See our complete A24 Double Bill Pairings on Letterboxd.
