Episode description

Stellan Skarsgård and Al Pacino each star in their own version of the same story - a talented but troubled homicide detective may be forced to sway the results of an investigation to save his own ass. What makes it even more challenging? They're a fish out of water in a region where the sun never sets. Erik Skjoldbjærg and Christopher Nolan each give their take on Skjoldbjærg's original story resulting in two equally fascinating films. Dan and Jon share Al Pacino anecdotes and admire each film's strengths before chiming in with their own ideas on how Insomnia could be revisited.
