As we hit 25 years after one of the greatest film years of my lifetime, I thought it would be a good idea to begin adding more films to this podcast series. We start with the wonderful teen rom com, "10 Things I Hate About You," adapted from Shakespeare, starring Heath Ledger and Julia Stiles. Joining me in the discussion is critic and podcaster Morgan Roberts, host of Female Gaze: The Film Club. I hope you enjoy!

Nostalgic Classics with NostalgiaCast

For this discussion, I bring in Darin and Jonny from NostalgiaCast to discuss some classic films they were introduced to as kids, and which gives them that hit of nostalgia, as a result. We begin with Jonny's choice of "The Sting", and continue with Darin's selection of "The Sound of Music" before concluding with my choice of "Arsenic and Old Lace". I hope you enjoy!

"The Crow" at 30

In July 1994, my moviewatching trajectory was changed forever when I finally watched Alex Proyas's "The Crow". The film had already become a cult hit, and had been on my radar, but it wasn't until I saw it for myself that I just came out of the theatre different. As it turns 30, it is time to finally have a discussion of the film, and its legacy, on the Sonic Cinema Podcast. Joining me on the podcast is Chris Salazar, someone whom I've known on Film Twitter for a few years, and who loves the film as well. I hope you enjoy our discussion, and listen to the other episodes I've contributed to about the film over the years.

The music at the end of this episode is my 1999 composition, "In a Lonely Place," inspired by Graeme Revell's music for "The Crow." "In a Lonely Place" is on my 2000 album, "Dark Experiments".
