“He’s not a person anymore. No, he stopped being a person when he took our podcasts.” Returning guest Ryan Circelli brings Denis Villneuve’s 2013 sleeper hit: Prisoners. Before Arrival and Blade Runner 2049, Villneuve made this thriller about a man going to extreme lengths to find his kidnapped daughter. In this episode, we talk about the film’s dark subject matter, the weighty leading performances, and how notions of faith emerge through through the protagonist’s actions. Solving the maze will set you free on episode 22 of the UW Film Club Podcast!
On this week’s episode: Ryan Circelli, Cynthia Li, and Greg Arietta.
