Please check out the full podcast review on our Patreon Page by subscribing over at - https://www.patreon.com/NextBestPicture For this week's second podcast review, Giovanni Lago, Alyssa Christian, and Tom O'Brien join me to review and discuss the latest film from James Vanderbilt, "Nuremberg," starring Russell Crowe, Rami Malek, Leo Woodall, John Slattery, Mark O'Brien, Colin Hanks, Wrenn Schmidt, Lydia Peckham, Richard E. Grant, and Michael Shannon. It is based on the 2013 book "The Nazi and the Psychiatrist" by Jack El-Hai and tells the story of U.S. Army psychiatrist Douglas Kelley, who seeks to carry out an assignment to investigate the personalities and monitor the mental status of Hermann Göring and other high-ranking Nazis in preparation for and during the Nuremberg trials. The film premiered at the Toronto International Film Festival to a strong response from those who saw it, but what did we think of it? Please tune in as we discuss the performances, writing, themes, direction, its awards season prospects, and more in our SPOILER-FILLED review. Thank you for listening, and enjoy!
