The new film Glass Onion: A Knives Out Mystery is Rian Johnson’s follow-up to his critical and commercial 2019 hit Knives Out. Once again starring Daniel Craig as “world’s greatest detective” Benoit Blanc and an all-star cast (including some incredible cameos), Glass Onion finds Blanc attempting to solve a mysterious murder that has taken place against the backdrop of extraordinary wealth and privilege. In the process, Glass Onion offers sharp and incisive commentary about the intersection of money and power, the role of tech oligarchs and influencer culture in our society, and our tendency to venerate and emulate people of questionable moral value and overrated intelligence. Take a moment to inbreathiate and join Rabbis Knopf and Olitzky as they peel back the layers of this Glass Onion.
Rabbis Michael Knopf and Jesse Olitzky are lifelong friends, pop culture fanboys, and lovers of all things Jewish. Join them every other week for a conversation about what’s going on in pop culture from a Jewish perspective and about Judaism through the lens of pop culture.
