Jesse Plemons joins the show to talk about his performance as George Burbank in Jane Campion's much anticipated new film, The Power Of The Dog. Set in 1920's Montana, the film follows rancher Phil Burbank (Benedict Cumberbatch) and his brother George. When George brings home his new wife Rose (Kirsten Dunst) and her son Peter (Kodi Smit-McPhee), Phil responds to the pair with mocking cruelty, until the unexpected happens.

In this interview, Plemons talks about what drew him to his character George, explains how he and Cumberbatch ended up waltzing together during rehearsal, and shares what it was like to work with his partner, Kirsten Dunst, on this film.

Plemons also reflects on his childhood growing up in a small town in Texas, explains how having children has changed his relationship with fear, and emphasizes the importance of being a life-long learner.
