‘Passages’ with Ira Sachs

‘Passages’ with Ira Sachs

On this special episode of The Letterboxd Show, Mitchell Beaupre speaks with filmmaker Ira Sachs about his latest feature Passages, in theaters worldwide now from MUBI. This delicious love triangle follows Tomas (Franz Rogowski), a narcissistic filmmaker whose marriage to Martin (Ben Whishaw) hits the rocks when Tomas starts up an affair with Agathe (Adèle Exarchopoulos). Mitchell and Ira give you a taste of what to expect in Passages, a self-described “very horny film,” while diving deep into some of Ira’s personal favorites, including Dodsworth, The Innocent, Taxi Zum Klo and Je, Tu, Il, Elle.

Note: this interview was conducted as the WGA and SAG-AFTRA unions are on strike for better working conditions and fairer compensation for their work. Passages was an entirely independent production, shot in Europe with European actors, and is being released by an independent distributor that is isn't in the AMPTP, and therefore is not a struck company. We will never ask anyone to cross a picket line.
