If ‘hell is other people’, then what is a commune exactly? Thomas Vinterberg — divorcee, director, dogmatist — sets his sights on a radical moment in 1970s Denmark, asking how far we’ll go to give up the things, and the people, we love.

Two moments in Portuguese history, 850 years apart, form the elusive backdrop to this dreamlike tale. The Jester by José Álvaro Morais navigates breakups, blackmail and a battle for independence. Owen and Ralph are provoked by this arduous gem to talk politics, art and failed revolutions, with a side order of Jean-Luc Godard's Hélas Pour Moi and Chris Marker's Grin Without a Cat.

It’s loved. It’s loathed. It’s rarely clothed. This week, the boys get hot under the collar discussing Paul Verhoeven’s salacious ‘masterpiece’, Showgirls.

Owen and Ralph are joined by special guest Daniel Neofetou to discuss Nobuhiko Obayashi’s House, a comic horror bursting with visual effects and the hungry ghosts of war. They discuss the film’s formal experimentation and take a charming detour via Twin Peaks.

This week, there’s ennui on the menui as the boys take on Humanité - Bruno Dumont’s intensely bleak police procedural from 1999. But did video kill the Eurostar? Tune in to find out.

Ida Lupino’s concise parable on marital deception was a source of unexpected empathy for the boys. Well worth your divided attention.

This week, Owen and Ralph enter the exuberant dreamworld of Fellini’s 8 1/2 - a belly-busting feast for the senses. But did the boys overindulge?

Dim the lights as Owen and Ralph take a trip down David Lynch's turn-of-the-century mystery noir. Re-assessing their adolescent Lynch obsessions they find a new compassion behind the confusion. Sweet dreams.

As a little extra Owen and Ralph peer into the pink and gold interiors of Ariane Labed’s 2019 short Olla. A dose of dark comedy, female empowerment, and deep feelings.

This week, Owen and Ralph share some extremely constructive thoughts on a well-intentioned yet gruellingly shallow portrait of late art critic John Berger.
