It’s time for us to blow the whistle on THE POST, Spielberg’s 2017 ode to a free press, squeezed in during postproduction on another very different movie (more on that next episode). We’re very lucky to be joined in our discussion by BBC Radio 2’s resident movie critic, top gentleman and (most importantly) fellow Warwick grad James King, who shares tales of his various dalliances with Spielberg over the years, his personal connection to the film and his thoughts on the urgency it exudes thanks to its rapid production schedule. We don’t always get it right, we’re not perfect, but we keep on it. That’s the job, right?

You can follow James on Instagram at @jameskingmovies, follow his film club at jameskingfilmclub.com and listen to his reviews on Jo Whiley’s BBC Radio 2 show.
