After Hours
The Warriors
The Fisher King

James’s picks:
Do the Right Thing

James has never seen Jonathan Demme’s classic psychological horror, ‘The Silence of the Lambs’. We watched it together and then recorded a podcast about it.

With outstanding performances, script and directing is this the most influential suspense film of all time or just an A-list B-movie?

James had never seen Terrence Malick’s influential debut ‘Badlands’, so we watched it together and recorded a podcast about it.

Is this the greatest ‘lovers-on-the-run’ movie of all time and why is everyone they meet on their journey so strange?

During the episode we reference this video about narration:

James had never seen all-time classic musical ‘Singin’ in the Rain’ so we watched it together and recorded a podcast about it.

Regularly voted as the greatest musical ever made, what are the ingredients that make this film so special and why is it considered a ‘sheer unabashed joy’?

Dan and James are joined by friend of the show, Jim Clifford, for a leap through their favourite time travel movies.

What makes a great time travel movie?; do the best time travel movies need a cool time machine?; should time travel movies have sequels?
