Had a great time talking Diagonale and La Machine, which a rewatch convinced me is among the, let’s say, 150 greatest movies.
Cinéclub Podcast #19 is a conversation w/ @Nick_Newman on Paul Vecchiali's 'La Machine'. Link to the episode (and to the film, for those that haven't seen it) here - https://t.co/IPIQR3KwJ4

This is an amazing interview. The insights into Kubrick’s method, the calling out of the stupid myths, and great stories throughout, this was one of the highlights of my year. Thank you, @Nick_Newman

This is the Eyes Wide Shut interview you have been waiting for. An astounding conversation between Nigel Galt and @Nick_Newman detailing the mysteries, rumours, and production of Stanley Kubrick's masterpiece, for @Criterion's new restoration.

Stories about Harvey Keitel's exit from Eyes Wide Shut never made total 1,000% sense. Glad getting this on the record. https://t.co/Jlk7kC5PGF
