Episode 99: A House of Dynamite

This week, the gang steps into the explosive tension of A House of Dynamite, a modern pressure-cooker thriller where family secrets, fraying loyalties, and a single terrible night threaten to blow everything apart. Craig sounds the alarm and readies for attack with Producer's Notes (9:16), while Alain scorches a few eyebrows with the Beauclair Synopsis (18:44), laying out the film's tightly coiled timeline and the slow, heavy crack of inevitability beneath it. Chris then tiptoes into Philosopher's Corner (32:13), following the movie's dual phenomenology as inner lives and outside impressions slowly misalign. The gang holds their breath as the Round Table (43:13) ignites debates whether A House of Dynamite is commentary, catharsis, or just a really well-timed spark. Before annihilation, Reviews (1:23:30) and the Mailbag (1:35:16) blow the doors open for closing thoughts. As always, join us as we sift through the philosophical and non-philosophical aspects of the debris left smoldering in the film's wake.

🌲Our next Philosophy In Film Metro Cinema showing will be on December 21! Join us as we cozy up with the holiday classic: Miracle on 34th Street!🎄🎄
