  • The Apprentice / The Wild Robot / BFI London Film Festival
    Oct 23 2024

    If your film is your thing you are in the right place. Episode 35 of The Chronicle Film Podcast is here with The Apprentice and The WIld Robot reviews.

    The latest episode of the podcast Clotilde and Paul start the ball rolling with The Apprentice. Starring the Winter Soldier himself Sebastian Stan as a young Donald J Trump in 1970s and 1980's New York City. Meeting the one man who would change him, Roy Cohn (played by Jeremy Strong), teaching him to survive in the dark realms of ambition and power. We're not surprised Mr Trump tried to stop this movie being distributed unsuccessfully, does it strike a chord?

    Second and final review is Dreamworks Animation adventure The WIld Robot. Starring the voice of Luptia Nyong'o as Rozzum unit 7134 aka Roz, who crash lands on uninhabited island and must learn to adapt to the harsh surroundings. At the same finds herself becoming an adoptive mother to an orphaned gosling. Could this be Dreamworks best ever animated feature? Could it bring the studio success in the upcoming Awards season?
