Talk to Me Interview: Danny & Michael Philippou Tease Hidden Details
219I was lucky enough to be one of the very first people to catch Talk to Me at Sundance 2023 where it celebrated its world premiere. We were mere weeks into the New Year, but it was quite apparent I had just seen a film that’d likely end up being one of my top ten films of 2023. About six months later and three additional viewings later, I can confirm that assessment still stands. Not only is Talk to Me one of the best horror movies of 2023, but it’s also one of the best movies of 2023, period.
It focuses on a mysterious embalmed hand with the power to connect the living to spirits. If you hold the hand, say, “Talk to me” and then, “Let me in,” you willingly become possessed. The main characters in Talk To Me use this hand to get a quick high, but when Mia (Sophie Wilde) breaks the embalmed hand golden rule and stays connected for more than 90 seconds, things start to spiral.
If you’ve yet to see Talk to Me which is now playing in theaters nationwide, I’ll direct you to my Sundance conversation with directors Danny and Michael Philippou, and stars Sophie Wilde, Joe Bird, Zoe Terakes, and Miranda Otto: collider.com/talk-to-me-cast-director-interview-a24/
But, if you caught the film and are ready for some more spoilery details, this right here is the Talk to Me interview for you.
