Ep 162: Living (2022)

The Movie Robcast

The latest episode of the Robcast is all about Living. As in the Robs discuss the new film from Bill Nighy, director Oliver Hermanus, and writer and co-producer Ishiguro Kazuo. They look at why the film is such a great remake of Kurosawa Akira’s 1952 masterpiece Ikiru, and the ways in which shifting the story from Japan to England works so well.

They also discuss the impact Ishiguro’s work tends to have on them, plus times they’ve blacked out in films. We promise it all ties in.
