In this episode, the team was bowled over by Dreams, part of a new arthouse trilogy by Norwegian writer-director Dag Johan Haugerud called The Oslo Stories Trilogy (not to be confused with Joachim Trier's similarly named Oslo Trilogy). The other two instalments - Love and Sex - are released later in August.
Dreams got us talking about our favourite trilogies in general, from the first three Toy Story movies to Richard Linklater's Before... films via Edgar Wright's Cornetto trilogy. We also squeeze in a review of stop-motion film Savages, the long-awaited new work from Belgian director Claude Barras, best known for his bruising coming-of-age animation My Life as a Courgette.
