Episode 201: All the Beauty and the Bloodshed

All the Beauty and the Bloodshed (2022) directed by Laura Poitras. From Academy Award winner Laura Poitras comes an epic, emotional and interconnected story about internationally renowned artist and activist Nan Goldin told through her slideshows, intimate interviews, ground-breaking photography, and rare footage of her personal fight to hold the Sackler family accountable for the opioid crisis. The film interweaves Goldin's past and present, the deeply personal and urgently political, from P.A.I.N.'s (Prescription Addiction Intervention Now) actions. This is The Recommendation Game, a bi-weekly podcast where two film lovers take turns to recommend a film the other has not seen, they watch and then skype to discuss it. Spoilers are a given. We are Ricardo Deakin and Orla McNelis, two filmy types who love waffling.
