On the Silver Globe by Andrzej Żuławski (1988) | Episode 03

In this episode of the Rewind & Revive podcast, I’m joined by Van Padilla of @VanWatchesMovies to take on Andrzej Żuławski’s unfinished sci-fi epic, On the Silver Globe. We dig into the film’s chaotic production history, its haunting themes of power, despair, and failed utopias, and how Żuławski’s personal and political turmoil shaped every frame. We also unpack: The film’s dense, poetic structure and jagged editing style. Żuławski’s clash with Polish authorities and the devastating censorship that halted the project. Why On the Silver Globe remains such a singular entry in the science fiction canon — and why it still matters. Plus: thoughts on the legacy of this wild, unfinished masterpiece, and whether a remake would even be possible (or desirable).
