This week we’re stepping into the neon-soaked, paranoia-driven world of Strange Days — Kathryn Bigelow’s bold and prophetic 1995 tech noir. We explore the POV filming breakthroughs, the real-world riot influences, Angela Bassett’s powerhouse performance, Ralph Fiennes’ sleazy charm, and the film’s eerily accurate predictions about surveillance, police power and the turn of the millennium.

We break down 100 surprising facts, production stories, casting discoveries, on-set chaos and why this movie has aged into one of the most relevant cult films of the 90s.
