Listen Later

Everyone loves a good movie, but what exactly separates just a 'good' film from an 'epic' one? On the latest episode of 4Thirty, Ben and Pat take a trip to the historical cinema and discuss some of the truly 'epic' motion pictures that have graced the silver screen over the decades, while debating the criteria that separates an epic movie from the more pedestrian. The guys also break down a half-dozen or so new stories this week, while also sharing some fun facts and anecdotes along the way. Have streaming services dealt a catastrophic blow to the future of Epic Cinema? Do movie makers still struggle to top some of the epic films of the 1950s? Do certain actors tend to have a proclivity towards performing in 'epics'? Do flies really 'throw up' whenever they stop flying? For answers to these questions and many, many, more, please give the latest episode of 4Thirty in the Morning a listen!
