The Screen International Podcast Matt Mueller, Fionnuala Halligan

In the second Screen Awards Podcast for the 2023/24 race, our experts look at which titles are gaining momentum following the Golden Globe nominations and the European Film Awards, and go in-depth on the process – including costs – involved in submitting a film for Bafta consideration.

Screen’s editor Matt Mueller, executive editor, reviews and new talent Fionnuala Halligan, and awards and box-office editor Charles Gant also discuss why it’s been a good few weeks for 'Anatomy Of A Fall' and Hayao Miyazaki’s box office hit 'The Boy And The Heron'.

In the first Screen Awards Podcast for the 2023/24 race, Screen’s editor Matt Mueller, executive editor, reviews and new talent Fionnuala Halligan, and awards and box-office editor Charles Gant assess the early UK and international frontrunners.

We speak to filmmaker Rian Johnson about Netflix whodunnit Glass Onion: A Knives Out Mystery.

The film received an unusual week-long theatrical release in the US, UK and other select territories, ahead of its worldwide streaming bow on December 23.

Johnson, whose previous films include the original Knives Out, Looper, Brick and Stars Wars: The Last Jedi, spoke to Screen’s Americas editor Jeremy Kay about shooting during the pandemic and the film’s groundbreaking release.

Our team assesses the state of the race following last weekend’s Bifas, what they could mean for the Baftas, and the first US critics ceremonies.

Podcast host and Screen International editor Matt Mueller is joined by deputy editor Louise Tutt and awards and box office editor Charles Gant.

In the second episode of our 2022/2023 awards season series, we speak to director Luca Guadagnino and writer David Kajganich about 'Bones And All'.

The film stars Timothée Chalamet and Taylor Russell as a pair on cannibals on the run in 1980s America, 'Bones And All' is based on the novel by Camille DeAngelis and debuted at Venice this year.

Guadagnino and Kajganich discuss making a different kind of cannibal movie, how David’s cameo as bus driver ended up on the cutting room floor and why Luca is planning an extended theatrical cut for his film 'A Bigger Splash'.

Interview by Screen’s international reporter Ben Dalton.

In our first episode covering the 2022/2023 awards season, Alejandro Gonzalez Iñárritu, a two-time best director Oscar winner for 'Birdman' and 'The Revenant', talks to Screen contributing editor Mark Salisbury about his latest project, Mexican Oscar entry 'Bardo, False Chronicle Of A Handful Of Truths'.

Iñárritu explains why it took him so long to follow up 2015’s 'The Revenant', cutting more than 20 minutes of footage from 'Bardo' after its Venice premiere, and the real-life inspiration for the project.

'Bardo' is released in select UK cinemas on November 18, before launching worldwide on Netflix on December 16.
