Jude Law Talks with Sean Durkin and Arcade Fire’s Richard Reed Parry on the Talkhouse Podcast

The star, writer-director and composer of the new film The Nest, out now through IFC, have a fascinating discussion about their collaboration.

9:01 AM EST on November 19, 2020

On the latest episode of the Talkhouse Podcast, three of the creative talents behind the new movie The Nest – writer-director Sean Durkin, actor Jude Law and composer Richard Reed Parry – sit down for a deep-dive conversation about their work together and their respective artistic processes. Over the course of their talk, the trio discuss how their deeply collaborative creative approaches aligned in creating a collective vision for The Nest, how Sean and Richard met and became friends and collaborators, how Richard approached writing music for The Nest (and how Sean was able to “find” the film through the music), the way Jude and Sean together sketched a backstory for Jude’s protagonist Rory, the ways in which they each “submitted to the moment” while making the movie, and much more.

This week’s episode was recorded by Sean Durkin, Jude Law and Richard Reed Parry; our producer is Mark Yoshizumi.
