Ian and McKenzie, for the second time in a row, welcome back their friend ⁠Christian Gutiérrez⁠ to bring Noirvember to a close!

This time we are talking about the 2021 version of Nightmare Alley. We chat the differences in this adaptation, the black & white director's cut exclusive to The Criterion Collection, the stellar cast, neo-noir, as well as the craft of master filmmaker Guillermo del Toro.

We also chat a little bit about what we've been watching this Noirvember.

Follow Guti at ⁠Finite Cinema Dreams⁠ and on ⁠Letterboxd⁠. Also find his recently published article ⁠"Noir or Not: Los hermanos Del Hierro" in Noir City Magazine No. 44⁠.
