Episode 210: MAD MAX: FURY ROAD (2015) with Natalie Marlin

Featuring Natalie Marlin (https://twitter.com/NataliesNotInIt)! For some, MAD MAX: FURY ROAD was an amusement. For others, it shattered growing cynicism. It’s an epic in the classic sense, thrilling and regaling with focused sights and sounds and craft so impactful it seems like wizardry. At the same time, it’s a bountiful narrative that works with the barest materials – neologisms, post-consumer weaponry, and roving bands of apocalyptic automobiles abound – to tell a rich story of redemption, reclamation, hope, and escape. “The Art of the Car Crash: Mad Max: Fury Road” by Trylon volunteer and Trylove guest Finn Odum: https://www.perisphere.org/2023/01/13/the-art-of-the-car-crash/ “Ride the Brutal Euphoria Wave with Angel Electronics” by Natalie Marlin for Bandcamp Daily: https://daily.bandcamp.com/features/angel-electronics-ultra-paradise-interview Moo: https://mmfrconfessions.tumblr.com/post/125295076648/you-know-that-bit-when-rictus-erectus-drinks-some Find Natalie… On Twitter at https://twitter.com/NataliesNotInIt On Letterboxd at https://letterboxd.com/framingthepic/ On Trylove Episode 162: THE THIRD MAN (1949), Episode 182: CHESS OF THE WIND (1979), and Episode 197: RETURN OF THE LIVING DEAD (1985) Follow us on Twitter at https://twitter.com/trylovepodcast and email us at [email protected] to get in touch!
