Episode Description
Ep. 357: Radu Jude on his new film Dracula, plus One Battle After Another, shooting his next film, and more
Welcome to The Last Thing I Saw, with your host, Nicolas Rapold. Radu Jude’s latest film, Dracula, is a fervidly imaginative, joyously profane look at this enduring myth through multiple stories, riffing on past tellings, a dinner theater, Francis Ford Coppola’s film, a sweatshop run by vampires, assorted AI grotesquerie, and more. As a fan of Radu Jude’s work, I couldn’t resist another conversation with the multiple-award-winning Romanian director of Do Not Expect Too Much from the End of the World. He also dug into the history of the Dracula story in Romania and shared his recent viewing and reading, including thoughts on One Battle After Another.
Dracula opens in theaters on October 29.
