For this week’s second podcast review, I am joined by Josh Parham & Tom O’Brien to review and discuss “September 5,” starring Peter Sarsgaard, John Magaro, Ben Chaplin & Leonie Benesch. Directed and co-written by Swiss director Tim Fehlbaum, the film had its world premiere at the Venice International Film Festival and has gone on to receive positive reviews, a Golden Globe nomination for Best Picture – Drama, and two Critics Choice Award nominations for Best Original Screenplay, and Best Film Editing. What did we think of its examination of the 1972 Munich Olympics massacre through the perspective of the broadcast journalists from inside the ABC sports booth? Tune in as we discuss its unique approach, the performances, themes, editing, reception towards the film, its awards season prospects, and more in our SPOILER-FILLED review. Thank you for listening, and enjoy!
