Kathryn Bigelow: Near Dark (1987) and Strange Days (1995)

Continuing our new season on Director Double Bills, in this episode we focus on action auteur Kathryn Bigelow, exploring her 1987 vampire Western NEAR DARK (31: 57) and the 1995 cyberpunk tech-noir STRANGE DAYS (1:39:15).

Joining us today to discuss these films is an incredible guest, author and academic, Professor Stacey Abbott, who wrote the BFI Classic on NEAR DARK.
