Let’s talk about the three things women are told not to do: negotiate, network unapologetically, and say no like we mean it. Most of us have been programmed to default to yes—to the point that we feel guilty saying no, even when it’s the most obvious answer. And when we do say no? We often soften it, explain it away, and sugarcoat it so much that it barely sounds like a no at all. Kathryn Valentine—CEO of Worthmore Strategies and corporate badass helping companies retain and promote female talent—is here to flip that script. With experience advising Fortune 100s and dropping knowledge in places like HBR and Fast Company, Kathryn knows exactly how women can claim their worth, own their voice, and not feel bad about it. From salary talks to schedule shifts, from asking for more to turning down what doesn’t serve you, this episode is your reminder: your power doesn't come from being liked. It comes from knowing what matters and having the guts to go after it. Kathryn even drops her epic list of 76 things you can negotiate (yes, SEVENTY-SIX). So if you've ever softened your no or stayed silent in a meeting, this one’s for you.

Patents at the Popcorn Counter 18:47

منذ 14 يومًا18:47

18:47

For once we actually agree with Martin Scorsese: there has been an observable degradation in the experience of going to the cinema over the last few years. But is it, as Marty suggests, the fault of unruly audiences? Or is our theory correct, that exhibitors are making things worse? Join us at the popcorn counter this week as we discuss some of the patents we’ve seen recently that are actively trying to make watching movies worse for everyone. Which are real and which are made up? And what can audiences do to resist?

Seeing Double: Popcorn Counter 21:27

منذ 21 يومًا21:27

21:27

(Warning: Spoilers for Superman from the start...) We’re seeing double at the Popcorn Counter this week, as take note of the cultural trend in cinema: actors playing more than one role in a movie. Everyone’s doing it: Superman, Sinners, Mickey 17 and Saturday Night have all used this trick in the last few months. But it’s hardly a new phenomenon. Who did it first, who did it best, who did it the most, and who did it so well we didn’t even notice?

Superman vs Superman the Movie: Supermen! 1:33:23

منذ 27 يومًا1:33:23

1:33:23

We have been looking up this week, enjoying Superman new and old. This year’s Superman is James Gunn’s first film as head honcho for the DC Universe, and bears many of his technicolor trademarks. But how much does it owe to the OG, 1978’s Superman the Movie, starring Christopher Reeve and Gene Hackman? And does the original still stand up 47 years later? Which film has the longest opening credits we’ve seen in forever? Which film did we watch twice in the space of six hours? Which film takes an hour and nine minutes before we see any superfeats? Which film has the best toupees? And why, why, why, why, WHY do we keep saying ‘Batman’ instead of ‘Superman’? Plus: an alien invasion by CGI slugs from 2006, a hyper violent low budget superhero spoof from 2010, a happy week spent in a state park, two boxes of candy cigarettes, a concert with St Vincent, a very long single from Laurie Anderson, and some tantric advice for Sting as we join the Seven Minute Climax Club… If you enjoyed the show, find us on social media: BlueSky: @tworeelcinemaclub Instagram: @tworeelcinemaclub Contact us at tworeelcinemaclub@gmail.com Or come to our website, where we’ll be writing about the movies we cover in the show and a few more things besides: https://tworeelcinemaclub.com…

New York Times Top 100 Films at the Popcorn Counter 25:54

The New York Times recently published their list of the top 100 films of the twenty first century, and hoo hah, that has certainly stirred up some strong reactions! Does the list just reinforce our suspicion that cinema is on its death bed? Or is the list full of joyful surprises and incredible revelations? Which films on the list do we agree with? Which left us scratching our heads? And what are the conspicuous omissions?

F1 The Movie vs Bullitt: Speeding Ticket 1:33:06

منذ 6 weeks1:33:06

1:33:06

We’re strapping on our helmets and climbing into our bucket seats this week, as we watch maybe the most heavily branded film we’ve ever seen, the new Apple feature F1: The Movie, and answer the question: how much phallic imagery can be crammed into a single two and half hour period? We’re comparing it to the film with probably the most famous car chase in cinematic history, 1968’s Bullitt. But which film has the most montages? Which film demonstrates the power of casting? Which film touched us with a surprising personal moment? Which film has a cameo from friend of the pod Mike Primmer? And which of us had a unique personal experience while watching Steve McQueen blow up a car? Plus some geeky dinosaurs, some symbolic fountains, a low budget Hal Hartley tribute from Colin Trevorrow, a fine jazz soundtrack, and a surefire method to avoid police prosecution.

There are good films with bad names, and there are bad films with good names. And sometimes, rarely, there are films that hit both targets dead centre. Join us at the Popcorn Counter where we’re discussing movie titles this week - ones we love, ones we hate, ones we’re proud of and ones we just don’t understand. Where did the name for Blade Runner really come from? Which is better, Snakes on a Plane, or just plain Plane? Which Kubrick film has two titles?

Join us on the isle of Berk this week, as we go lizard taming with the vikings in the new live action remake How to Train Your Dragon. And then stay with us as we set sail for an unnamed 10th century Moorish city in the 1964 action epic The Long Ships. It’s a manly podcast about Gerard Butler and Richard Widmark, with more beards that you can shake an axe at. But is there a gentler message at the heart of either of these films? How does the new film quote from the old one? Which film takes us into a mirror world? And what’s the real reason why this new version of an animated classic was made at all? Plus Tom Cruise goes all Jesus on us, we investigate dinosaurs’ mating habits, we discover what a Norse AmEx card looks like, we thrill at the mare of steel, we drink some sheep’s milk, we meet some Viking red shirts, we learn about the origins of Bluetooth, and finally we hide in a vestibule… If you enjoyed the show, find us on social media: BlueSky: @tworeelcinemaclub Instagram: @tworeelcinemaclub Contact us at tworeelcinemaclub@gmail.com Or come to our website, where we’ll be writing about the movies we cover in the show and a few more things besides: https://tworeelcinemaclub.com…

Blood Sucking Freaks at the Popcorn Counter 18:23

We’re sick of these false teeth and black cloaks, but we’re going to wear them anyway, because we’re reflecting on vampire movies this week at the Popcorn Counter. (But obviously not in a mirror.) How do rules-based stories work and why do we love them? Which vampire movies did we enjoy and which did we avoid? Why don’t teenagers know the vampire rules any more? And what exactly is the difference between ‘undead’ and ‘alive’? Including Let the Right One In, What We Do in the Shadows, Gremlins, Cronos, Twilight, Nosferatu (both of them), Shadow of the Vampire, Alien, Interview with the Vampire, From Dusk Til Dawn, and a preview of our new script, ‘Don’t Tell Graham it’s Tuesday’.

We’re sucking blood and playing the blues this week, after watching the new Ryan Coogler Mississippi vampire picture Sinners and 1992’s Francis Ford Coppola’s Bram Stoker’s Dracula. Is Sinners an early contender for film of the year? What do the two films have to say about racism, cultural appropriation and ‘the other’? Which film has a lot of sexy talk and which one has more boobs than a straight-to-video erotic thriller? Which character is living their best life? And which film features a cameo from Geddy Lee? Plus a bipolar superhero picture, a new spoof of the billionaires’ club, a month spent with Monica Bellucci, some very polite monsters, and a visit from the Cliché Squad on horseback.

We’re talking about housing at the popcorn counter this week. After watching the real estate adventures of Secret Mall Apartment last week, we got to thinking about cinema’s function as a feeder of fantasy. Out of all the places that we’ve visited through the screen over the years, which are the ones we really wish we lived in? Which are our top five movie homes, and why? Do we prefer mansions or hammocks, quiet islands or cities, black and white or colour? Including two sea monsters, a volcano, a Frank Lloyd Wright house and a beach getaway. Plus toads in the basement, the search for the real orgasmatron, an apology to Wes Anderson, a lesson on simultaneity, a night spent with Hemingway, and a secret tunnel that features free food and a long, long drop… If you enjoyed the show, find us on social media: BlueSky: @tworeelcinemaclub Contact us at tworeelcinemaclub@gmail.com Or come to our website, where we’ll be writing about the movies we cover in the show and a few more things besides: https://tworeelcinemaclub.com…

Secret Mall Apartment vs The Apartment: The ArtPartment 1:21:25

منذ 12 weeks1:21:25

1:21:25

We’re in real estate agent mode this week, as we watch two films with unique takes on the property market. Secret Mall Apartment is a new documentary about an art collective who moved into a disused corner of a Rhode Island mall in the early 2000s, while 1960’s The Apartment sees sparks fly between Jack Lemmon and Shirley MacLaine in Billy Wilder’s landmark Oscar winning comedy. Two films with some profound themes, including love, art, death, urban living and takeout food. But what do the two films have to say about capitalism? Which film short changes its female characters? Which film has more mirrors than The Lady of Shanghai? Which film was made with a camera small enough to fit in an Altoids can? And which film teaches a great lesson in how to grab an audience? Plus an excessively mannered new feature film from Wes Anderson, an okay debut movie set in a boat, a debate about the meaning of the word ‘squat’, a very famous brother, a big set of keys, and one of us confesses to a serious crime.

Popcorn Counter: Tariffs 26:55

Popcorn seems to have got more expensive like everything else recently. And now we may be looking at tariffs on the film business. But how would these proposed tariffs work? And what might they mean for movie fans as well as moving picture professionals? Join us at the popcorn counter as we discuss Jon Voight’s proposals for MAGA’s film industry master plan with special guest Mike Primmer, and try to figure out what it all means. Are we looking at a renaissance for domestic film production? Or are we facing purity tests and a flurry of conservative movies? And will the whole thing last more than a week before the news cycle moves on to the next big story?

We’re joined by the film industry’s premier sound recordist this episode, as Mike Primmer sits down with us to talk about dog movies. We’ve seen The Friend, the new Bill Murray/Naomi Watts light drama, recorded by Mike, and we’re comparing it to the much loved Swedish 1985 coming of age picture My Life as a Dog. Two films about loss, grief, change, wagging tails and vinyl records. But which film reminded us of a Hallmark picture? Which film is based on the best book we’ve read this year? And what secrets will Mike reveal about the making of the film? Plus a quick journey to a dystopian TV future, a trip to see a choral masterwork, a revisit of a 2005 modern classic about bats, a flashback to a marriage proposal, and we get Pavlov in to ring the spoiler bell.

We’re going off-world this episode, joining Robert Pattinson on an ice planet in Bong Joon Ho’s new satirical clone adventure Mickey 17, before crashing back to a ruined, rainy Earth to compare it to Ridley Scott’s flawed 1982 masterpiece Blade Runner. Two films about artificial humans and the value of life, but which one deals eloquently with eternal themes and which one can’t make up its mind what it wants to say? Which one feels fresh and contemporary, and which one feels like a satire that’s been overtaken by the news? Which one was originally going to be a Scorsese film? And where exactly are the electric sheep? Plus we ask if there is an Oscar curse, remember Mr Spock making love to a rock monster, reminisce over TDK tapes, enjoy a teenage lesbian romance with a surprising left turn, have a quick lesson on Fregoli syndrome, send Sandra Bullock into space and let Fellini float into the air.

We’ve got to stop reading, it’s just making us mad. This week at the popcorn counter we’ve been looking at Namwali Serpell’s article in the recent New Yorker about ‘The New Literalism’, and boy do we have something to say. Serpell’s been to the multiplex a lot lately, and frankly if we’d just come out of Gladiator II and Megalopolis like she has, we’d probably be annoyed too. But is ‘on the nose’ story-telling really a new phenomenon? Or do some films still value showing instead of telling? And is there a difference between a film being too long and a film being too wide?

We’re heading to the southern hemisphere this week and taking regular guest Inês Braga with us, as we catch up with the Best International Feature Film Oscar winner, I’m Still Here, and compare it to 1997’s Brazilian kidnap drama Four Days in September. Two adaptations, two films about the Military Dictatorship, two films starring Fernanda Torres, two films with similar timely themes. But which film has five endings? Which film stars the cutest dog? Which film is bookended with images of resistance? And which film was so tense it made us drop our avocado? Plus Inês explains the real background of both films, discusses Brazilian acting dynasties and tells us about meeting Walter Salles. And in between all these revelations, we also squeeze in a penguin in a classroom, a trip to the North Sea, a Trumpian biopic, a new British version of AI, a very diffident lifeguard and a huge crowd of nepo-babies.

We’re taking a trip back to the 1970s this episode, as we watch the new Oscar-nominated, Munich Olympics-based reconstruction-drama September 5, and compare it to Steven Spielberg’s film about the aftermath of those same events, 2006’s Munich. Two tense movies about truthfulness, integrity and violence. But which one features accountants chasing accountants? Which one takes full advantage of Aristotle’s principles? Which one quotes directly from a 1976 TV movie? Which one appeals to the nerd in both of us? And which one features maybe the most misconceived scene we’ve watched in years? Plus a message from a Cuban outfitter, a singalong with an R&B legend and friend of John Lennon, a trip to a surreal but disappointing office complex, a reflection on the importance of endings, and a content warning about Eric Bana’s face.

1:44:22

We’re heading to Tijuana this episode, as we watch two films set in Mexico made nearly seventy years apart. Emilia Pérez, the new Netflix transgender narco-gangster musical, has thirteen Oscar nominations and a whole lot of bad press. But does it deserve the controversy and the opprobrium, or were audiences just expecting something different? We’re comparing it to 1958’s Touch of Evil, Orson Welles’ last great noir picture which was also maligned on release but is now considered a classic, especially in its 1998 restored cut. Two takes on racism, prejudice, drug gangs and cross border travel. But which film features a star who looks like they’ve been dipped in chicken fat? Which film is studded with little lights from start to finish? Which film has the longest uninterrupted take? Which lead actor is surprisingly flexible? Which film offers two Gabors for the price of one? And which film contains everything that conservative commentators hate? Plus a lot of ceilings and mirrors and deep focus, an appearance from Madonna with a hand drier, an Australian stop frame Tim Burton-a-like, a refugee story from Senegal, a new way to decorate your car, a 1950s equivalent of pounding techno, and a really, really weak radio.

1:31:25

Come with us on a couple of trips to Europe this week at the Two Reel Cinema Club, as we join Jesse Eisenberg and Kieran Culkin on a tour of Poland in the new Oscar nominated comedy drama A Real Pain, and then catch up with Ingrid Bergman and George Sanders in Roberto Rossellini’s 1954 masterpiece, Journey to Italy. These two films both explore deep themes, encompassing death, art, love, poetry and bickering, and the parallels between them are myriad. But which one features a villa where we would gladly spend a few years? Which one keeps frustrating us with missed opportunities? Which one is stunningly beautiful? And which one left us asking ‘what’s changed’? Plus we place a call to Interpol on behalf of the Cliche Squad, wonder what is the best thing to do if driving while sleepy, try travelling without moving thanks to our chemically inspired sponsor, get stranded on an island with a reclusive Japanese soldier, learn something about one of the UK’s biggest exports, start an adaptation of the greatest book of all time, taste a DIY menthol cigarette, and contemplate taking off all our clothes the next time we watch a film completely alone in the theatre… If you enjoyed the show, find us on social media: Instagram: @tworeelcinemaclub Contact us at tworeelcinemaclub@gmail.com Or come to our website, where we’ll be writing about the movies we cover in the show and a few more things besides: https://tworeelcinemaclub.com…

The mystique of Bob Dylan wafts through the Two Reel Cinema Club this week, as we watch the thoroughly enjoyable new biopic A Complete Unknown, and compare it to the actual Bob Dylan as he appears in the 1967 rock documentary Don’t Look Back. Two portraits of the Nobel Prize winning bard of the 20th century, but which reveals more of the real man? Which film features the most cigarettes? Which film reminds us of a teenage party? Which film really sings when the songs start? And which film stars the machine that kills fascists? Plus Ralph Fiennes dressed as a priest, a Danish film about a girl with a needle, a new app that turns friends into money, a classic courtroom drama, a Guns N' Roses B side, and an appearance by the poster that inspired a ten year old.

It’s that time again, our annual favourite episode, the Two Reel Cinema Club Film of the Year Show. Seven categories, including best film, best actor, best script, biggest clunker, and weirdest moment of the year. As usual, we’ve kept our nominations secret from each other, so expect some dramatic revelations, some laughter, some tears and some last minute negotiations. Who will win, who will lose, who will have a meltdown and who will climb onto the lighting gantry, spread their arms wide and shout out, ‘I’m the King of the World!’? Featuring Jeffrey Wright, Mikey Madison, Joaquim Phoenix, Demi Moore, Lee Pace, Sebastian Stan, Martin Amis, Anya Taylor-Joy, an animated dog and an animated cat… If you enjoyed the show, find us on social media: Instagram: @tworeelcinemaclub Contact us at tworeelcinemaclub@gmail.com Or come to our website, where we’ll be writing about the movies we cover in the show and a few more things besides: https://tworeelcinemaclub.com…

Hundreds of Beavers vs Beaverland: About Sixty Beavers 1:15:46

منذ 32 weeks1:15:46

1:15:46

It’s yet another episode about four legged mammals this week, as we watch the riotous black and white physical comedy indie hit Hundreds of Beavers and compare it with the clever, witty and mind bending 2014 Chilean documentary Beaverland. These films offer two very different views of the industrious, furry dam-builders, while at the same time telling very similar stories. But which one had us asking, ‘Is this real?’ Which one surprised us with a connection to sex work? Which one made us genuinely laugh out loud? And which one has the most to say about humanity’s stewardship of the natural world? Plus we celebrate the word ‘cartoonery’, we ponder the difference between Leonardo da Vinci and Leonardo DiCaprio, we buy a piece of heavy duty gardening equipment, we attend a Christmas party with some long haired German guys, we watch Paul Schrader’s anthemic new Canadian misfire, we wonder if Christopher Nolan can write, and we ask: if he doesn’t have a surname, how does Homer’s agent know where to send the royalty cheques?

There’s a shocking and perplexing development at the Popcorn Counter this week, as we tell the tale of how Google recently censored and deleted one of our podcasts. What was the objectionable material? Racism? Sexism? Incitement to violence? Or… a Sanskrit quotation from Oppenheimer? We discuss the history of censorship in the UK, the curious rules of film classification in the US, and the terrifying dangers to society presented by nipples.

It’s our annual Christmas episode at the Two Reel Cinema Club, and in keeping with the festive season, this year we’re watching two films about sex workers. Wait, what? Join us as we talk about the new, Sean Baker-directed, heavily award-tipped drama Anora, and compare it to the dream-like 1967 Luis Buñuel classic Belle de Jour. Two different takes on sex work, more than fifty years apart - but how much has really changed? Which film could be renamed Vapes and 808s? Which film reminded us of Where’s Waldo? And which film left us asking: what’s in the box? Plus a revisit of a 20 year old Ryan Reynolds comedy, a genius idea for an ATM business, a serious question about the BBFC, a Christmas spent with Bruce Willis, a new subscription service from our subscription-mad sponsors, and even more butts than the Substance.

Did we ever tell you about the time we met Al Gore? Join us at the Popcorn Counter to hear how we encountered the man who was almost the President of the United States, and what it had to do with the film industry. Plus, once we’re on the subject of An Inconvenient Truth, we ask why there aren’t more environmental films, given the size of the problem. Movies mentioned include Silent Running, The China Syndrome, Oppenheimer, The Cove, Darwin’s Nightmare, Virunga, My Octopus Teacher, Koyaanisqatsi and more. Should we eat creatures that can solve crosswords better than us? What happens when humans abandon land? And why do we want to go to Mars when we have a perfectly good planet to mess up right here?

Flow vs Princess Mononoke: Cats vs Wolves 1:27:54

منذ 36 weeks1:27:54

1:27:54

We’re watching new Latvian animated film Flow this episode, a beautiful and distinctive looking parable about cooperation and environmental collapse, and we’re comparing it to the 1997 Studio Ghibli classic Princess Mononoke. These two movies offer two very different perspectives on the effects of humans on the lives of animals: Flow seems simple and family friendly, while Mononoke is violent, complex and morally ambiguous. But which of these films offers hope? Which could do with more jokes? Which is surprisingly violent? Which left us with more questions than answers? And which one has just tooooo much going on? Plus the return of an old sponsor in a new outfit, a screening of a Hitchcock silent picture with live music, a strange dream about Florence Pugh, a review of a philosophical essay from 1974 about bats, a watch of a 2019 film that could almost be a video game, and quite a lot of talk about mice.

This year is the first time in the history of cinema that every film in the top ten is a sequel or a prequel. Join us at the popcorn counter to talk about what’s wrong with the industry, how we’ve ended up here and what we might do to get ourselves out of this particular creative ditch. Who has the star power to open a non-franchise film these days? How can we encourage more risks? What can we learn from the craft brewery business?

A Different Man vs The Return of Martin Guerre: A Different Martin 1:39:42

1:39:42

We have watched the new Sebastian Stan movie A Different Man this week, a low budget, independent, off kilter comedy drama about an actor with neurofibromatosis who transforms his appearance and alters his identity. But do things change for the better or the worse? We’re comparing it to the classic tale of stolen identity, 1982’s The Return of Martin Guerre. These movies offer two takes on similar phenomena, with some wildly varying conclusions. But which film contains the best surprise? Which film looks like a painting brought to life? And which film has a link to animated favourite Robot Dreams? Plus we read a novella by Alexandre Dumas, we discover a personal connection to a beautifully scored Netflix documentary about lost children, no-one saves us from a fun and almost silent alien invasion movie, one of us gets lost in the Maine woods, and we enjoy a word from our sponsors and their nuclear powered mints.

We’re in conversation with probably the world’s number one sound recordist this week, friend of the pod Mike Primmer, who was the man holding the boom in last week’s film A Prairie Home Companion. Join us for not only the best recorded Popcorn Counter ever, but also for some incredible insights into the making of this 2006 classic. How many takes does Robert Altman like to shoot? What’s Woody Harrelson’s guitar playing like? How pregnant was Maya Rudolf? And how was Paul Thomas Anderson involved?

Saturday Night vs A Prairie Home Companion: Saturday Night Companion 1:30:12

1:30:12

Stop singing that Whigfield hit from 1994 and instead join us for a look at Saturday Night, the brand new feature film comedy from Jason Reitman about the first broadcast of US television institution Saturday Night Live. With its fairly soft plot, character based comedy, constantly moving camera and huge ensemble cast it looks a lot like a Robert Altman movie - which is a lucky coincidence, because we’re comparing it to Altman’s final picture, 2006’s A Prairie Home Companion, a gentle drama about life backstage at a long running radio show. It’s one of those weeks where the two films have so much in common that if feels like we’ve watched the same movie twice. But which film stars a character with a face for radio? Which film has more than one connection to I Used To Be Funny? Which film has some of the best sound we’ve heard in a long time? And which film obeys one of the great rules of screenwriting? Plus a judging position on a Sri Lankan popstar lookalike contest, a look back at running a real comedy club, a brief requiem for John Belushi, a nod to BBC Radio Four’s Loose Ends, a visit to a midwestern lake of dinosaur poo, and a new real estate opportunity out at sea from our sponsor.

1:43:08

Anna Kendrick’s directorial debut Woman of the Hour is our new film at the Two Reel Cinema Club this week, a true life serial killer thriller that mixes perky humour and dreadful violence to powerful effect. We’re comparing it to one of the granddaddies of serial killer movies, 1971’s Dirty Harry. Which film is stacked to the rafters with Christian imagery? Which film takes no interest in the victims of crime whatsoever? Which film feels like four different films squished together? And which film is like a Rosetta Stone that can explain modern American politics? Plus we have a Portland Maine special edition, with two local horror films, two locally born stars and one local real estate deal, as well as a cameo from Churchill, a surprisingly helpful doctor, a naked blues band, a sauce that goes with everything, a real life baddie from the seventeenth century, a complaint from the cliché squad about the colour orange, and a surprise guest appearance by Donald Trump’s ear.

It’s not an episode for those with claustrophobia this week, as we get stuck in the elevator on the way to the Popcorn Counter for the second time. At least we have our microphones, so we take the opportunity to practice our best elevator pitches. With Joker: Folie à Deux fresh in our minds, are there any other well known properties that would benefit from a musical redo? Which three films from recent podcasts would we love to see in song? Which three outliers from cinematic history deserve a fresh lease of life with the benefit of a few show tunes?

When Joker made nearly $1.1bn at the box office, a sequel was more or less assured. But who expected a musical? Join us this week as we watch Joaquim Phoenix and Lady Gaga in Joker: Folie à Deux and ask: is it possible to turn a comic book movie into anything? What does the film say about the state of the world? Is society a civilising force or a tissue-thin cover for anarchy? And how does this new film compare to the movie to which it pays a twisted homage, 1964’s sweet and colourful The Umbrellas of Cherbourg? Plus we enjoy a new Pixar home run, we watch a documentary about surfing, we wonder what it would be like to read the Bible at 40, we tell a true life story about being arrested, we flick through DSM 5, we try on a new brand of underwear, and we question the significance of cults centred around criminal television personalities.

You, like us, may have read recently about the current contraction of Hollywood and the collapse of streaming. Is cinema’s obituary mere alarmism or an uncomfortable truth? What will happen to the small and mid sized movies? Where are the opportunities for new and established writers going to come from? Will there be any end to superhero sequels and IP movies?

These two have plenty in common, with actors chewing the scenery and flesh and blood everywhere. But which film is the most joyful? Which film has the most convincing medical procedures? Which film has perfect casting? And which film is 15% gyrating butts? Plus a look at Coralie Fergeat’s previous films Revenge and Reality+, a trip to a puppet theatre, a surprise appearance by John Lennon, a colourful burst of Fellini, a new, delicious and educational sponsor that one of us can barely pronounce, and Christian Slater retrieves a nuclear bomb.
