About this listen

A House of Dynamite imagines a nightmare scenario where US government and military officials race against the clock to intercept an unidentified nuclear missile bound for American soil. Directed by Kathryn Bigelow and featuring an ensemble cast including Idris Elba, Rebecca Ferguson, Gabriel Basso, Jared Harris, and Tracy Letts, the film unfolds in near real-time, blending documentary-style realism with escalating global stakes.

We break down its grounded tension, innovative three-perspective structure, exploration of nuclear policy and decision-making madness, and whether it veers into preachiness or stays balanced in portraying a world on the brink.
