For the tenth episode of Framed & Bound, host Tobias Carroll teams up with Kurt Baumeister — author of Pax Americana and Twilight of the Gods — to discuss the 1999 film The Ninth Gate. This was co-written and directed by Roman Polanski, and adapts Arturo Pérez-Reverte’s novel The Club Dumas.
In The Ninth Gate, an expert in rare books is sent in search of a centuries-old book that may contain information on gaining uncanny abilities. Does Satan play a part? He just might.
Discussed in this episode: things you should never do to a rare book, intriguing facial hair choices, unseen Frank Langella roles and how they dovetail with this film, buildings on fire, and more.
