Summary
Pete and Trevor drove right into the open arms of death itself, and its name is Nosferatu (not Dracula). Robert Eggers has had an incredible start to his directing career, but Nosferatu was the movie he was born to make. Starring Lily-Rose Depp, Nicholas Hoult, Aaron Taylor-Johnson, Willem Dafoe, with Bill Skarsgård as the gross old vampire himself, Nosferatu is a triumph of atmosphere, cinematography, and performance. Listen to the podcast to hear our immediate reactions to the film after leaving the theatre (giving plenty of warning before getting into spoilers). This month includes the start of our ongoing project to watch every Aardman feature and short film. We encourage everyone to watch along with us and check in each episode for our dedicated Aardman segment. Go to https://boxd.it/BQYVu for the watchlist for January. Next week is the new Wallace and Gromit movie ‘Vengeance Most Fowl’ along with the Aardman shorts from 1990-1995, including ‘The Wrong Trousers’.
