This week on the InSession Film Podcast, we discuss more movies we’ve caught up with in the last week, including My Old Ass, Ghostlight and Music by John Williams! We also talk some fascinating box office narratives and Interstellar‘s 10th anniversary.

– Opening / Box Office (0:30)
After some opening banter, we open the show with our usual box office conversation, which is full of some fascinating narratives at the moment. The Wild Robot increased(!!) in its 7th weekend. Conclave may be the return of the adult drama. Anora has some really great potential for Neon. Juror #2 also surprised despite the very limited theatrical distribution.

– Robert Zemeckis / Interstellar (44:40)
One of the nice things about the show’s new(ish) format is that sometimes we find ourselves in these unexpected rabbit holes, which explains how we ended up doing an impromptu Robert Zemeckis retrospective. His career up until Cast Away wasn’t bad at all, and included a few masterpieces along the way. Post-Cast Away it has been bleak, and his new film Here doesn’t seem to buck that trend. As for Interstellar, while we’ve talked about it before, we wanted to once again discuss why it’s both Chris Nolan’s best and worst film.

My Old Ass / Ghostlight / Even More 2024 Catch-Up (1:06:41)
Keeping with the theme of last week’s show, we had more films to discuss that we recently caught up with in the last week. My Old Ass may just go down as the best surprise movie of the year. Ghostlight was another delightful surprise and features some of the best performances of the year. We also had to get into the documentary Music by John Williams as we are, of course, massive fans of the GOAT.
