In this installment the brothers try something new. Using Tom McCarthy's Spotlight (2015) and the Mads Matthiesen's short film Dennis (2007) as jumping off points we examine how filmmakers keep us engaged when the story faces mundanity. Through the investigation we spotlight: foreign languages in film, shorts vs features, characterization, and pacing. Let us know what you think at the new NFTSS Instagram @nftss_pod.
