• All We Imagine as Light – A Poetic & Contemplative Journey Through Love & Loneliness

  All We Imagine as Light is a quiet, contemplative, and deeply moving drama that follows three nurses in Mumbai as they navigate love, friendship, and the search for fulfillment. Payal Kapadia crafts an exquisitely made film that’s both meditative and socially rich, balancing themes of feminism, isolation, and personal growth.In this episode, I break down the film’s slow, serene pacing, its beautifully restrained performances, and the way its third act shifts into a road movie reminiscent of Y Tu Mamá También—but with a distinct voice of its own. While some moments lean into melodrama, the film ultimately lands in a deeply satisfying way.Tune in as I unpack my thoughts on this poetic, thought-provoking gem.Listen now and let me know—did this film resonate with you?#AllWeImagineAsLight #PayalKapadia #CannesWinner #MoviePodcast #IndieFilm #FurmanOnFilm

• Saturday Night w/ Myself – Breaking Down Jason Reitman’s Saturday Night

  Hey Film Friends! I’m Nick Furman, and this is Furman on Film—your go-to podcast for in-depth movie discussions, sharp critiques, and maybe a metaphor or two that barely hold up. Today, we’re diving into Jason Reitman’s Saturday Night—a film that attempts to capture the chaos, genius, and ambition behind the very first episode of Saturday Night Live. But does it actually pull it off? Or is it just a hyper-stylized re-enactment that tells us what we already know? 🔹 What We Cover in This Episode:✅ The film’s high-energy style vs. its lack of depth✅ Standout performances that nail the essence of their real-life counterparts✅ Jason Reitman’s direction—ambitious but maybe too polished?✅ Jon Batiste’s amazing score and its impact on the film ✅ The BIG question: Who is this movie actually for? If you’re an SNL history buff, you might love this one. But if you’re looking for something fresh and revelatory, you may walk away wanting more. Listen now, and let’s keep the conversation going! Do you think Saturday Night does justice to SNL’s legacy? Drop your thoughts in the comments or hit me up on socials! #SaturdayNight #SNL #JasonReitman #MovieReview #Podcast #FurmanOnFilm #ComedyHistory #FilmCriticism #JonBatiste #DylanOBrien #CoryMichaelSmith #MovieDiscussion
