Sam watched It's a Sin (2021) and he can't recommend it enough. A narrative following four friends during the rise of AIDS in the 1980's. A show that brought back Sam's tears while at the same time filling up his heart with love. It's a must-see.

It's the start of the Sundance Film Festival and Fabian Fanboy is pretty excited about it, so you can wrap yourself around that this weekend.

Today on your bFM Breakfast: Friday is here and we're about to dive into a long weekend; Fabian Fanboy talks festivals and films; Director of Auckland Pride, Max Tweedie pops in to talk us through all the exciting Pride festivities that are taking place over the next month; and Sam reviews It's A Sin, and can't praise it enough!
