Listen "23. Apocalypse Now"
Episode Synopsis
This year marks the 45th anniversary of Francis Ford Coppola's legendary war film, and Nathaniel and Phoebe leapt at the chance to watch and discuss it.
Nathaniel's history with the film goes back at high school, while, as the premise would suggest, Phoebe is experiencing it for the first time.
They had lots to discuss, including what the film achieves from an artistic and sensory perspective, how its formal and narrative qualities have aged, and a particularly hot Film School Take from Nathaniel.
