Episode 27: Knock at the Cabin / M. Night Shyamalan

The Brothers look in the mirror and see the light for a roundtable discussion of M. Night Shyamalan’s Knock at the Cabin. They discuss whether the film’s narrative worked for them, address differences from the novel, examine its religious storytelling and in the process compare it to Signs, and unpack the film’s formal elements and performances. Then, they place the film within Shyamalan’s larger career.
