David and Jonathan feed their film addiction with a discussion of Thomas Vinterberg's Another Round (AKA Druk) and Gus Van Sant's Drugstore Cowboy.

Plus, they drop quick takes on BBC Television's much talked about series drama Happy Valleys and King Hu's Wuxia Martial Arts masterpiece Dragon Inn.

What’s our motivation! 

At the swap starting line, we introduce the show and kick off the conversation with a look at John Ford’s She Wore A Yellow Ribbon and Youssef Chahine’s Cairo Station. 

Plus we drop some quick takes on Noah Baumbach’s White Noise and Béla Tarr’s Sátántangó.
