At the Movies in the 90s

Film Stories

The 90s. The end of the Cold War. The Spice Girls. New Labour. Euro 96. The PlayStation. The World Wide Web. We all have our memories. Many of them will be of movies in an era where the blockbuster truly came home, where arthouse prospered, where the Brit film soared & where, in some ways, popular culture truly began. I’m A. J. Black. Author, writer & podcaster, and the 90s was my decade. It was probably yours too. So join me, and my co-host Mark McManus, as I head down memory lane AT THE MOVIES IN THE 90s...

In the latest episode of AT THE MOVIES IN THE 90s, your hosts A. J. Black and Mark McManus travel back to 1998 for the obscure British comedy thriller, Bring Me the Head of Mavis Davis.

With two Britcom giants in Rik Mayall and Jane Horrocks, plus a fun darkly comic concept of murder and gangsters, what could possibly go wrong? Or rather, why did very little go right?

At the Movies in the 90s - At the Pictures in Britain: Coming July 5th!
play

06/01/24 • 2 min

Britain. Fish and chips. Cups of tea. The smell of the theatrical greasepaint, the roar of the football crowd. A diverse nation grappling with its own long, complex history, always with one tongue firmly in cheek.

Over the last century, British film has ebbed and flowed, from Ealing comedy to Carry on sauciness, from the British New Wave to Cool Britannia, from Hammer horror to... Hammer horror again. Forget Hollywood - embrace Pinewood.

I’m A. J. Black. Author, writer and podcaster, and I love British film. Join me in a celebration of its quirks, its successes, its failure and its unique gems, At the Pictures in Britain...

Coming July 5th exclusively on the Film Stories Podcast Network!

A heady mix of Euro camp, Möebius colour and Hollywood pretensions, Besson's film remains a striking piece of work. But has it dated? Let's find out.
