Ep08: The Safdie Brothers - Anti-heroes and the Neon Noir

Ep08: The Safdie Brothers - Anti-heroes and the Neon Noir

Description

This week we're talking about the two most recent films by the Safdie Brothers, two of the biggest indie filmmakers of the last few years. Known for their penchant for writing deeply human anti-heroes paired with neon sound and landscapes, it's no wonder they've become as big as they have. Good Time and Uncut Gems are both available on Netflix.
Next week is the first Thursday of the month, so that means another auteur deep dive! Check out our twitter @thecinemaniax as well as our instagram @cinemaniapodcast for updates and more!
Featuring: Chris Ding, Zach Chilcote, and Vivian Chuang
Music: Craig Cutright
