from Hot Date with Dan and Vicky · host Hot Date with Dan and Vicky

Renowned French director Claire Denis was shooting her dour thriller High Life while nursing her dying mother. She credits the real life tragedy in her life for the somber, sometimes oppressive feeling that pervades the film. It stars Robert Pattinson and an international cast including Juliette Binoche (a Denis regular), Mia Goth, Andre (3000) Benjamin, and Lars Eidinger and was Denis's first English language film and her second true attempt at genre after 2001's vampire drama Trouble Every Day. Dan and Vicky discuss the outer space weirdness of the film and it's obsession with bodily fluids! Also on deck is plenty of recently seen including Saint Maud, Hounds of Love, Bava's Planet of the Vampires, Malle's Au Revoir Les Enfants and Vicky's deep and long dive into the films of Spanish auteur Pedro Almodovar! Don't miss it. Check out Hot Date 123 and leave us feedback on your favorite podcatcher. All things Hot Date can also be found on our website: hotdatepod.com.
