We review One Battle After Another, Leonardo DiCaprio’s first collaboration with Paul Thomas Anderson, which draws on the paranoid humour and tangled conspiracies of Thomas Pynchon's Vineland. On Take 2, we revisit your favourite DiCaprio performances, and on B-Side, we dive into Jonny Greenwood’s soundtrack of tense rhythms that mirrors the film’s spiralling paranoia.
