This week, Joe, Rashmi, and Yazdi return with a compelling mix of postwar courtroom drama, experimental storytelling, and genre-defying surprises. 🍿

🎧 In this episode:

⚖️ NUREMBERG The team discusses a new dramatization of the landmark post-WWII trials. With its historical weight and moral complexity, this film brings justice, memory, and power dynamics into sharp cinematic focus. Also here’s the link Yazdi mentioned:

🐝 BUGONIA Directed by Yorgos Lanthimos, this darkly comic fable imagines a world where chaos, ritual, and bees intersect in deeply unsettling (and hilarious) ways. Known for The Lobster and The Favourite, Lanthimos brings his signature absurdist lens to a strange and layered narrative that’s anything but conventional. The hosts unpack its themes, visuals, and what makes it unlike anything else this year.

🚧 IT WAS JUST AN ACCIDENT The latest film from Jafar Panahi explores the blurred lines between responsibility, perception, and truth in modern Iran. As always, Panahi brings a deeply human lens to a deceptively simple premise. The Moviewallas delve into his signature mix of realism and quiet provocation — no spoilers, just thoughtful conversation.
