Interstellar – Love in a Dangerous Spacetime
from Hell of a Picture Hosted by Hell of a Picture
This week, after the claustrophobic grit of Following, Andrew and Dave find themselves in a whole different dimensional bookshelf with Interstellar. Dave opens talking about how his experience with the movie has changed since he last saw it based on shifting cultural tides, while Andrew speaks candidly and shares a moving personal story about why, for him, Interstellar will never change. The guys talk about the film’s commitment to scientific authenticity and its equally admirable resolve where the use of practical effects are concerned. They’re each over the moon with the performances, discussing Michael Caine as a wrestling villain, Mattew McConaughey as a great explorer and a not-as-great dad; Jessica Chastain as the hero, and Matt Damon as Gollum. Dave finds new meaning in a Dylan Thomas poem, but – sadly - no one named Cobb; and Andrew marvels at the power of love to transcend time, space, dimension, and death. Will Interstellar crack the formula for what makes a hell of a picture? Or will rage not be enough to counter the dying light? Tune in and find out.
