Show notes

Tansy Gardam — film critic and host of Going Rogue  — joins Angus Truskett for a conversation about movie disasters, studio chaos, and why the films that nearly collapsed are the ones we love most.


We get into: Charli as The Moment, Count of Monte Cristo-maxxing, starting a podcast to combat misinformation, the Patron Saint of Photoshop, Duel of the Fates glazing, Rian Johnson’s goofy-to-serious ratio, the Beatles Cinematic Experience, Nick Cave’s legendary Gladiator II script, Zack Snyder’s sets, Dredd locks, Taika Wonka, and Song of the South for zoomers.


Decline and Fall: Dressing the Empire

In an era of frictionless digital experiences, there’s something magical about obsolete technology


Music by Gab Strum.
