“Do you know what the scariest thing is? To not know your place in this podcast . . . to not know why you’re podcasting.” This week club alumni Jacob Carlson brings M. Night Shyamalan’s super hero film, Unbreakable, onto the show. Before the genre as we know it, Shyamalan made this comic book film that talks about the very notion of the hero and the tropes these heroes are sourced from. We talk about how Unbreakable differs from the recently released Glass, the context in which the film was released, and where this film fits within Shyamalan’s diverse filmography. Get ready for the twist in the 21st episode of the UW Film Club Podcast!
On this week’s episode: Jacob Carlson, Cynthia Li, and Greg Arietta.
