ClapperCast - Episode 4: Eurovision Song Contest: The Story of Fire Saga, You Should Have Left, Wasp Network, and Wendy
Hosted by CLAPPER editor-in-chief Jak-Luke Sharp, alongside a rotating roundtable of diverse and marginalised writers from all over the world, ClapperCast features in-depth debates and discussions of the latest festivals, wide releases, news, interviews, and other happenings in the film world.
Each episode of ClapperCast highlights three centrepiece films or filmmakers alongside one marginalized film that we believe deserves to be known better in n a virtual roundtable where we discuss the films themselves as well as their broader impact on the future of the cinematic world.
In this episode, our roundtable of global writers (Jak-Luke Sharp and Rory Marsh) are joined by Paul Anderson (host and creator of Strangers in A Cinema) as they discuss the extravagant hilarity of Will Ferrell and Rachel McAdams’ Netflix Eurovision Song Contest: The Story of Fire Saga, why Olivier Assayas’ disappointing Wasp Network (starring Ana De Armas and Penelope Cruz) would work better as a TV show, the perplexing and embarrassing failure of Blumhouse’s You Should Have Left (starring Kevin Bacon and Amanda Seyfried), as well as diving into Benh Zeitlin’s underseen indie film Wendy and discussing why it deserves a critical reappraisal.
