The Brothers Grimm (2005)

Episode 1: The Brothers Grimm (2005)

 

Our PREMIERE episode! Cullen and Hannah watch The Brothers Grimm (2005) starring Matt Damon and Heath Ledger as the namesake juggernauts of European fairy tales and folklore. Cullen walks us through the real brothers’ lives in Germany and their impact on literature, linguistics, and German culture. Then, we dissect the odd acting choices, puzzling plot structure, truly baffling tone of the film, and more. But the question remains… would Harry Styles consider it a movie?

 

Huge shoutout to Grimm Reading for their episode “The Extraordinary Lives of the Brothers Grimm,” which was super helpful in our research!,
