On this episode of Cinema Royale, Joblo.com’s Chris Bumbray is back and we’re talking Ridley Scott’s post-apocalyptic THE DOG STARS with Jacob Elordi, Josh Brolin, Margaret Qualley, Guy Pearce, and Allison Janney! How long before we get a Director’s Cut of this one?
A story set in the aftermath of global destruction. In this case, it’s not war but a lethal pandemic that has swept most of humanity off the globe. A few stragglers survive, including Elordi’s Hig, a pilot who has a single-engine Cessna he calls The Beast, a loyal blue heeler mutt named Jasper … and not much else. The dog and the plane are Hig’s version of singing “Old McDonald”—small comforts to keep him going when all seems lost.
