Summary

This week, Josh Parham & guest Nathaniel Rogers from The Film Experience joined our main podcast review to discuss the latest feature film from Academy Award-winner Jane Campion, titled "The Power Of The Dog," starring Benedict Cumberbatch, Kirsten Dunst, Kodi Smit-McPhee & Jesse Plemons. Based on the novel of the same name by Thomas Savage, the film is packed with literary symbolism, metaphors, and characterization making it one of Campion's richest works yet. We discuss her writing and direction, the performances, the crafts, including Ari Wegner's cinematography, Johnny Greenwood's score, plus the film's awards season potential in our discussion down below. Be sure to watch the film first on Netflix before listening to our SPOILER-FILLED review, and enjoy! Check out more on NextBestPicture.com Please subscribe on...
