episode Maurice Pialat cover

Maurice Pialat

French filmmaker Maurice Pialat initially wanted to be a painter. He did not fulfil that dream, and it’s hard not to trace at least part of his legendary anger and bitterness back to this early frustration. Centred on protagonists who can be brutal with one another as they cope with violent waves of emotion, his films are nevertheless marked by undeniable beauty and heartbreaking gentleness. They have the same gripping immediacy and moving grace as works by some of his most cherished artists, chief among them Vincent Van Gogh – and Pialat’s biopic of the Dutch painter may well be his masterpiece. In this long gestating episode, Elena and Manuela get emotional talking about the work of one of their favourite film directors.  Hard Truths is an ⁠⁠Animus⁠⁠ [https://animus-magazine.ghost.io/] film podcast.

episode The Before Trilogy cover

The Before Trilogy

Is love real, or a socially accepted form of delusion? Is there such a thing as chemistry, or are random encounters only perceived as meaningful connections through the lens of expectation and memory? Is romance a choice, or written in the unalterable script of our destiny? As Richard Linklater’s Before Sunrise (1995) turns 30, Elena and Manuela revisit the Before Trilogy, completed by Before Sunset (2004) and Before Midnight (2013). This ill-fated episode, re-recorded and delayed, ends with a brief reflection on Nouvelle Vague (2025), Linklater’s film of the making of Jean-Luc Godard’s À bout de souffle (1960).  Hard Truths is an ⁠⁠Animus⁠⁠ [https://animus-magazine.ghost.io/] film podcast.

episode Meta Chills cover

Meta Chills

Gleefully playing with established tropes, the three films Elena and Manuela discuss in this new episode of Hard Truths toe the line between comedy and terror, irony and sincerity, fiction and reality: early true crime spoof Man Bites Dog (Rémy Belvaux and André Bonzel, 1992), meta franchise sequel Wes Craven’s New Nightmare (1994), and French “slasher” High Tension (Alexandre Aja, 2003).   Hard Truths is an ⁠⁠Animus⁠⁠ [https://animus-magazine.ghost.io/] film podcast.

episode Joachim Trier cover

Joachim Trier

It’s only a matter of time before Joachim Trier wins a Best Picture Oscar. In this new episode of Hard Truths, Elena and Manuela damn the Norwegian director with faint praise but also give him his flowers as they discuss three of his best known films: Oslo, August 31st (2011), The Worst Person in the World (2021), and his latest, Sentimental Value (2025).  Hard Truths is an ⁠⁠Animus⁠⁠ [https://animus-magazine.ghost.io/] film podcast.

Liker at det er både Podcaster (godt utvalg) og lydbøker i samme app, pluss at man kan holde Podcaster og lydbøker atskilt i biblioteket.
Bra app. Oversiktlig og ryddig. MYE bra innhold⭐️⭐️⭐️
