For varied reasons both personal and geo-political, we're not able to bring you the fresh podcast meat you've come to expect from us this month, our apologies for that. So, we do what we always do in times of trouble and turn to our spirit animal, Jean Claude Van Damme for inspiration. Here is, I think, his every appearance in our podcast, includin…

What better place for drama to accumulate than the formerly smokey dens of iniquity that were casinos? Of course, they're now mostly free of smoke, if not iniquity. We look at two casino adjacent flicks, Croupier and Hard Eight, and see if they roll snake eyes, hit the jackpot, or indeed any other gambling-centric clichés you have to hand.…

In this episode we take stock of Shane Meadow's movie output, and see if his examinations of English working class stories and characters have stood the test of time. Listen in to get our takes of varying temperature on Small Time, TwentyFourSeven, A Room for Romeo Brass, Once Upon a Time in the Midlands, Dead Man's Shoes, This Is England, Somers T…

Following on from our last episode on the films of John Huston, we thought we'd change things up with a look at two more John Huston films. This time it's his first, and still one of his most iconic films, The Maltese Falcon, and a rather more obscure outing from over a decade later that's considered a loose parody of that films form, Beat the Devi…

Robert Ludlum was a prolific author of primarily Cold War espionage thrillers, and so in a way it's surprising that so few of his works made their way into cinema screens, and the vast bulk of those were part of the The Jason Bourne Imbroglio. In this episode, for no real reason other than a fondness for espionage bunkum and baroque titling, we are…

Some time ago we did a whole episode on time travel films without mentioning Robert Zemeckis and ‎Bob Gale's Back to the Future series, their bold updating of Oedipus, so today we remedy that oversight and see if the pride of 1985 and its follow-ups live up to their reputations, and their posters. Remember when movie posters were good?…

It's an open secret that the podcast slot we nominally refer to as "Compare and Contrast" is normally twisted into a way to cover a couple of films we fancy taking a butchers at, but we do keep a list of a few candidates that are more directly comparable than most. Some of these cover that Hollywood phenomenon where, by coincidence or design, films…

If you're feeling generous you could call today's episode a mash-up, or more accurately, the remnants of a couple of different music related ideas that never quite gelled into a full episode. It was resurfaced recently in the morass of my mind by the sad passing of rap-man DMX, rendering him unable to deliver to ya. Alternate delivery services must…

We take a hopefully representative cross section of Howard Hawks' voluminous output and run it through our extensive analytical suite to determine the truth of it. Join us as we poke and prod at Scarface, His Girl Friday, Sergeant York, To Have and Have Not, The Big Sleep, and Gentlemen Prefer Blondes until they stop wiggling and give up their secr…

Dearly beloved, we are gathered here today to take a butchers at two films that routinely vie for top spot in any self respecting list of British gangster movies. Both are more concerned with gangsters performing investigations, both refuse to sugar coat the nefarious activities of the their leads, and you could probably make a case for each film r…

Japanese director Seijun Suzuki had been on my list to catch up on for some time now, long before his death in 2017. He's cited as an influence on Tarantino (but who isn't?), Jim Jarmusch, Wong Kar-wai, John Woo, Takeshi Kitano, and surely Takashi Miike, both in style and career arc. Suzuki started directing primarily B-movies that were, as I am le…
