Luca Guadagnino’s new BONES AND ALL slots nicely into the tradition of films about outlaw lovers on the lam, but also bucks the tropes of that tradition in a manner reminiscent of Terrence Malick’s mold-breaking BADLANDS. This week we’re looking back at Malick’s 1973 feature debut to pinpoint what differentiates it from other young-outlaw tales and what distinguishes it as an early Malick film, in particular its voiceover narration and fascination with the natural world. Plus, two of the year’s most talked-about films, TÁR and THE BANSHEES OF INISHERIN, get talked about some more via listener feedback.
Please share your comments, thoughts, and questions about BADLANDS, BONES AND ALL, or anything else in the world of film, by sending an email to comments@nextpictureshow.net, or leaving a short voicemail at (773) 234-9730.
Outro music: “Love Is Strange” by Mickey & Sylvia
