2012 CLOUD ATLAS (feat. Noah Cannon)

Once again, we're joined by Noah Cannon who is here to help us wrangle the most labyrinthine film on our list: Cloud Atlas, technically one of the most expensive independent films ever made from the Wachowski sisters and Tom Tykwer. There's a lot to talk about: how history repeats itself, the many changes between the book and the movie, how this film has become something of a cult classic, the excitement of having a transgender director helming a huge film, and why we (as well as Tom Hanks) think you should give Cloud Atlas another shot if you overlooked it in 2012.
