Show Notes
ALL WILL BE DISCLOSED.
After a few weeks off, we're back in action for the THIRD SEASON of Screenland! Zara Hedderman joins me to talk about Senor Spielbergo's third - fourth if you count 'War of the Worlds' - alien-centric sci-fi thriller in 'Disclosure Day', starring Emily Blunt and Josh O'Connor as two seemingly random people who are inextricably drawn to one another as a shadowy American government-linked agency led by Colin Firth of all people rushes to stop them from releasing a seventy-year archive of information of alien landings and experiments. Think 'The X-Files' but, y'know, with Steven Spielberg directing.
Elsewhere, Zara Hedderman gets paranoid about 'The Conversation', Francis Ford Coppolla's weird and wonderful spy drama with a terrific and against-type performance from Gene Hackman. We talk Hackman's stunt casting, David Shire's twinkly score, the creepiness of audio recording, make wild assumptions about Coppola and 'Megalopolis' and more besides.
