Ep. 347: The Nightingale (2019‪)‬ GoodTrash GenreCast

    • Film Reviews

As our 2019 retrospective begins winding down, Arthur kills the mood by choosing Jennifer Kent's follow up to The Babadook, The Nightingale. This Tasmanian period piece is a brutal, realistic take on the revenge thriller. Kent crafts a beautiful film that is increasingly harder and harder to watch. This week, we take a look at the three big Es on the eye chart: racism, colonialism, and assault. Before any of that business, we expand our syllabus and break down what we like and don't like about the movie.
