After a month spent digging into the filmography of Christopher Nolan, you’d think our critics would be perfectly situated to really understand the nuances of Tenet. You’d be wrong. This week, Film Club turns into a confession booth, as both A.A. Dowd and Katie Rife divulge that the blockbuster auteur’s latest spectacle left them feeling more than a little lost.
Meanwhile, the second film discussed on this week’s episode, Charlie Kaufman’s I’m Thinking Of Ending Things, is just as complex in its storytelling as Tenet, but its emotional through line resonated much more clearly with our critics. It probably doesn’t hurt that Dowd has read the book, however.
