Nick is joined this week by roommate and show fan-favorite, Kareem, to discuss the new Damien Chazelle film: First Man. This movie covers the eight years prior to Neil Armstrong taking his first steps on the moon and his personal struggles along the way. Seen on IMAX at the Chinese Theatre in Hollywood, CA, Nick and Kareem delve deep into this film's themes and execution. In this episode, they discuss the aesthetic and how it shows contrast between the moon and home, the design, the score by Justin Hurwitz, the performances of Ryan Gosling and Claire Foy, how the pacing might have taken away from the story, Armstrong's suppressed emotions and his arc, the influence of the current social climate, thoughts on the controversy of anti-patriotism, how this movie compares to other space flicks including 2001: A Space Odyssey, how this compares in Damien Chazelle's repertoire, thoughts on potential oscar nominations, and much much more!
