'Anora,' one of the most dazzling films of the year, has hit theaters, and helping to break it all down is producer Casey Durant (2:09). She and Schmear dive into what makes the film special, from Sean Baker’s direction to Mikey Madison’s star-making performance. They debate the film’s ending (27:52) and discuss its potential awards run (37:00).
Then, acclaimed artist and now-director Titus Kaphar joins to talk about his brilliant, heartbreaking debut film 'Exhibiting Forgiveness,' starring André Holland (40:36). Kaphar shares his muses, lessons learned on set, what art films get right and wrong, and the filmmakers inspiring him today.
