Episode Details

On this week’s episode, I’m joined by V for Vendetta director James McTeigue, whose film is returning to theaters on the first and fifth of November (“Remember, remember!”) via Saga Arts and Fathom Entertainment. We had a really interesting discussion both about the making of the film (I had no idea Hugo Weaving replaced another actor you may well know several weeks into production) and its continued relevance. What was intended as a metaphor for the War on Terror now holds up pretty well in our current age—arguably, much better, given the state of things now compared to then.
