Children of Men (2006) | Ep. 75 - Part 2

Back into 2027 for the second half. John, Westy, and Matt continue the story of Alfonso Cuarón's dystopian classic, turning to the people who pulled off the impossible and the ending that lingers long after.

We dig into the crew behind the film — the screenplay, the score, and the revolutionary cinematography of Emmanuel Lubezki, including those legendary long takes (yes, including that car scene) — before breaking down the finale, the reception, and the film's lasting influence on action filmmaking. How did they pull off shots that shouldn't be possible? Plus the hosts' final verdict and scores.

If you've not heard Part 1 — the beginning, the director, the cast, and the middle — go back and start there.
