Mark AdderleyHOST
Anyway, this film gives you that.
Mark AdderleyHOST
Do you remember films like The Green Knight that A24 released a few years ago? I went to that film thinking, oh, I'm going to really get some sort of deep-seated, historic, mythic, underground, paganistic...
Mark AdderleyHOST
the underbelly, the lava, the strata, the substrata, the terra firma, the deep-seated relic natural world history of mythos and druidness and Anglo-Saxon-ness and tribalness and all that kind of stuff.
Mark AdderleyHOST
Because that's not just being around the bush.
JoshHOST
I'm pretty sure I know her from...
JoshHOST
She was in Green Knight.
JoshHOST
It's the Falcon.
JoshHOST
The Falcon and the Winter Soldier and then the Green Knight.
JoshHOST
Those are the two things.
JoshHOST
Like, oh, yeah, that's super recognizable.
Mark KermodeHOST
Yes
Simon MayoHOST
... of The Green Knight.
Simon MayoHOST
I wasn't concerned by the initial darkness or the slightly off-kilter accents." I mean, certainly if you're in the cinema, um, Sean, you're gonna be fine.
Simon MayoHOST
It's just watching it-
FrankPANELIST
Wow.
FrankPANELIST
Starting at number five, Sir Gawain and the Green Knight, the story, but also specifically the Green Knight, pictured here losing his head.
FrankPANELIST
Wow.
FrankPANELIST
Great story.
FrankPANELIST
I, I don't know anything about this.
FrankPANELIST
The Green Knight? Wow.
FrankPANELIST
You're in for a treat.
FrankPANELIST
The Green Knight shows up at, you know, King Arthur's, what is it, Camelot? Yeah.
Ian DukesHOST
Like, I don't know how this guy feels, but maybe that, he's supposed to be above it all because he's a Celestial deity.
Jon DrakeHOST
It mirrors another movie we've covered, but one we liked much more than this, about kind of an ancient myth retold with a modern lens, The Green Knight.
Ian DukesHOST
Right.
Jon DrakeHOST
Remember when the Green Knight shows up, you expect him to be super intimidating and stuff, but he's actually jolly.
Ian DukesHOST
That was a fun twist.
Ian DukesHOST
That was a fun characterization that also was hard to incorporate or make sense of what you were seeing in the way that, you know, as we talked about in those medieval fairy tale type of things.
Marine PerroHOST
But on The Vampire Lestat, he's also a writer, a co-producer, a lyricist, and he is here with me to talk about his work on this third season of this show based on The Vampire Chronicles by Anne Rice.
Marine PerroHOST
Daniel is also the composer behind the soundtracks of movies such as The Green Knight, Peter Pan and Wendy, and Mother Mary.
Marine PerroHOST
He's also the front man of the indie pop band Dark Rooms.

It was the spring of 2025.
Bryn ChaineyGUEST
And Dev was the first one that we went to.
Bryn ChaineyGUEST
I'd seen him in The Green Knight.
Bryn ChaineyGUEST
I thought he was great in that.
Bryn ChaineyGUEST
I thought he really just fits that world of, I don't know, the world of folklore and
Ryan SliwinskiHOST
Yes, he has given us very lofty films.
Ryan SliwinskiHOST
We've done The Green Knight.
Ryan SliwinskiHOST
He did recommend The Hateful Eight, but you were the one that officially did that on the podcast.
Ryan SliwinskiHOST
Yes.
Jay BurdenHOST
And it is legitimately the most subversive film ever.
Jay BurdenHOST
It's a retelling of Sir Gawain and the Green Knight.
Jay BurdenHOST
This kind of archetypal story of honor and commitment.
Jay BurdenHOST
And in this one, one, Gawain has been cast as a Bajit.
Jay BurdenHOST
Anytime someone comes to him for help, he won't do it.
Karl DahlGUEST
Very Indian.
Jay BurdenHOST
And the moment where he returns to the Green Knight, this sort of mystical creature that he cuts his head off at the very beginning.
Jay BurdenHOST
And part of this deal that sets up this whole plot from the original story is that this Green Knight comes in and he makes a deal with Sir Gawain, which is you get to hit me with a sword, but in a year I get to hit you.
RobHOST
And this, I feel like, kind of went under the radar a little bit.
RobHOST
It's the new David Lowery movie, who he directed Ain't Them Body Saints, Green Knight, The Old Man and the Gun, Ghost Story.
RobHOST
I really like this guy's style.
RobHOST
But Anne Hathaway plays kind of like an aged pop star.
