Is FRANKENSTEIN the movie Guillermo del Toro was born to make, or a movie that he’s essentially already made throughout his career? Anders and Aren explore the answer as they discuss del Toro’s latest for Netflix. They dig into the film’s adaptation of Mary Shelley’s novel, Oscar Isaac and Jacob Elordi’s performances, del Toro’s visual approach, and the religious implications of the film. Then, they sing the praises of Paul Thomas Anderson’s political action thriller ONE BATTLE AFTER ANOTHER and discuss whether Richard Linklater’s NOUVELLE VAGUE is an appropriate tribute to Jean-Luc Godard and the French New Wave.0:46 - Keynote1:33 - Table Talk: “Frankenstein”33:00 - Table Talk: “One Battle After Another”43:32 - Table Talk: “Nouvelle Vague”Clips:- “Frankenstein”- “Nouvelle Vague”- “One Battle After Another”Read more of the 3 Brothers’ reviews, features, and roundtables at https://3brothersfilm.comSubscribe to the 3 Brothers Film YouTube Channel: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCO1zge4GZWu3-mdH-VPv8tw
