Episode notes

Things get spooky as April talks to director Anne Hamilton about the 2001 gothic horror film, The Others. They discuss Nicole Kidman’s casting in the film, the director Alejandro Amenábar’s rejection of Catholicism, and how films like these just don’t exist anymore. Plus, Anne discusses what she would have done differently had she directed The Others, and what is was like working on her own gothic film, American Fable.

Anne Hamilton’s American Fable is available on Netflix now.

And if you haven’t seen it yet, go watch The Others.

With April Wolfe and Anne Hamilton
