Podcast Special: An Officer and a Spy
Manage episode 513378389 series 1106176
For this bonus episode of the Alternate Ending podcast, Tim is once again joined by film scholar Will Quade, author of the recent article "We Accuse: Antisemitism and Historical Remembrance in the Films of the Dreyfus Affair" published in The International Journal of the Image. They're here to discuss the remarkable path to distribution of the controversial 2019 Roman Polanski film An Officer and a Spy, which has only just received a North American release in the fall of 2025. Together, they explore questions of the conflicting politics driving the film's delayed release, the conflicting politics within the film itself, and the reasons why the film itself forces a reckoning with the complicated and unpleasant questions it raises.
