The Movie Defenders


The Movie Defenders podcast is a show dedicated to talking about the best things about the films you love, not tear everything down.

Aug 26, 2024

Everything is connected! Today with the help of our great friend, Kat, we are going to defend a movie that's either beloved, or reviled... Cloud Atlas! A DENSE movie that has multiple stories all going on at once, one of the biggest independent films of all time is certainly a controversial one. If you ever loved this film, or wish you did, this show is for you. We dissect the film, discuss what connects each story and why, the acting, the score, stories. If you haven't seen this one, don't worry... listening to our show on it won't spoil it either! So make sure you got your birthmarks, be careful what's in that juice box, and always yarn the true-true... it's time for Cloud Atlas on The Movie Defenders Podcast!
