The Northman (2022)

Published: June 3, 2022, noon

Today's show is a discussion and review of Robert Eggers' Viking epic THE NORTHMAN.

In 2017, producer/writer/director, Robert Eggers, met actor Alexander Skarsgard to discuss future projects.  Skarsgard, potentially a descendent of Vikings, has always loved Viking mythology and so when Eggers revealed that he had wanted to make a Viking film, the two immediately collaborated to bring The Northman to the big screen.

The Northman uses Grammaticus’ story as a base and then deviates leaning more toward Viking mythology and the supernatural, while remaining true to the basis of the plot of revenge.  Ultimately, presenting a very raw and savage Viking tale that apparently stunned critics and excited fans of Viking folklore.

In this show, we do more than a movie review by delving into the lives of the cast and crew, fan theories, trivia, scene breakdowns, and anything related to the film itself.  Needless to say, our shows are a little longer than your average movie review show, but we can assure you that our shows are jam packed with entertaining and interesting discussions.  If that sounds like your sort of bag, hang out with Kenny and Del as they get into The Northman
