About this episode
Multiple Academy Award winning director Alejandro G. Iñárritu joins us to discuss his latest work, the surreal, yet somehow pseudo-autobiographical film, “BARDO, False Chronicle of a Handful of Truths.” Since this episode focuses almost exclusively on the sound of the film, joining the conversation is much of the film’s sound team: Martín Hernández - Supervising Sound Editor and Sound Designer Santiago Núñez - Production Sound Mixer Jon Taylor - Re-recording Mixer Ken Yasumoto - Re-recording Mixer and Sound Designer While the film is truly a visually stunning epic, the director focused much of his attention on the audio, because, as he put it: “I really think that this film is — audio, 75% [of the experience]… It's my favorite film, audio-wise, by far. I think it's a much more complex and difficult film than I have done. And the work that this team did is invaluable. And the experience of the audio in Dolby Atmos — you can close your eyes and really understand and feel the film. So I think the job that this team did is absolutely extraordinary. I'm very happy with it.” — Alejandro G. Iñárritu, Director and Co-writer, “BARDO, False Chronicle of a Handful of Truths” Be sure to check out “Bardo,” available on Netflix starting on December 16th , in Dolby Vision® and Dolby Atmos®.
