There's always a reason why we connect with the films that we enjoy. When we do, it's always fun to share those stories with those who haven't seen them. In 'Movies You Missed', two generations collide to offer movies that mattered to us. Matching over 40s 'against' under 25s, we hold up films of different genres from our youth, hold them up against one another and talk about why they're worth sharing (or why they're not anymore). In our third episode, we take a look at comedy and talk about what makes us laugh and whether or not anything is funny anymore.This week: Encino Man (1992) v. This is the End (2013)

Who would've thought that Jesus would be the biggest movie star on the planet?

In this 1on1, we speak to Hall about why Hollywood has been so fascinated by the man, why the depictions differ so vastly and the relationship between the church and the cinema.

Produced by Alex Greer and directed by Joe Saunders, THE PENNY BLACK is a documentary that sounds like it was written by the best of mystery writers. When Will is handed a mysterious package from his neighbour and asked to watch it, he never imagined that it would contain a million-dollar stamp collection. As Will searches for the truth about the package, so too does the film question whether or not he's as innocent as they once thought. In this 1on1, we speak to Greer and Saunders about what we value, what they were thinking throughout the process and what they think they would've done in the same situation.

The recent Netflix release, THE WOMAN IN THE WINDOW is a roller coaster of a film about murder, anxiety, questioning yourself, neighbours and...well... a woman in the window.

With his first foray into the world of directing, Ahmir 'Questlove' Thompson takes us back to Harlem in the summer of 1969 and the best music festival you've likely never heard of.

In this special press conference with Questlove, he speaks about that it means to rewrite the history books and the most emotional parts of the film for him.
