More movie magic. It’s time yet again for another episode of The Canon: An Essential Movies Watchlist. Today is all about 2001: A Space Odyssey. Happy listening, screenagers!
Episode 106: 2001: A Space Odyssey (1968)
This episode goes beyond the infinite! Dave Wilson is back to talk about one of the 3 or 4 most monumental movies ever made – Stanley Kubrick’s 2001: A Space Odyssey.
