  • Episode 73: The Man Who Shot Liberty Valance
    "Beer ain't drinkin!'

  • Episode 72: La Trou
    "Poor Gaspard"
    Like an extended version of the heist scene from Le Cercle Rouge, but with more slaps. More pate and smoked fish than an episode of Chef's Table.

  • Episode 71: Heart Of A Dog
    "Lets embalm Lenin"
    Couldn't be a better time for our second Russian movie (never forget Come and See) courtesy of friend of the pod Alex. She joined us for lively chats on 1988's Heart of a Dog. A fascinating and little seen gem, about the start of the soviet union, made at the very end of the soviet union.

  • Episode 70: Elle
    "The bimbos with big tits never worried me, but a woman who's read "The Second Sex" will chew you up and spit you out"
    What better way to celebrate our one year anniversary on Dublin Digital Radio, than with Paul Verhoeven's Rape comedy that's not really a rape comedy. Happy birthday to us!

  • Episode 68: The Sweet Hereafter
    'It looks better than any mid budget 90s movie has a right to look'
    How good can a 1990's mid budget Canadian drama, that's structured like a melodrama, with a heavy reliance of the allegorical power of the Pied Piper fable possibly be?
    Just don't watch the trailer.... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=upeFO4qwfXM

  • Episode 67: The Shop On Main Street
    "The rope is a little too noose-y"
    Through expert scheduling we managed to have a special Oscar themed episode this week! With both the best foreign language film winner and the highest-rated film in the history of Slovak, Czech, and Czechoslovak cinema. Tragic and heart warming in equal measure.
    The film that connects Michael Shannon, Kevin Costner and tennis.
    You must never forget the caviar.

  • Episode 66: The Rules Of The Game
    'A merry-go-round of cinematic pleasure'
    Probably not our first melancholy social satire, but it might be the most entertaining. Jean Renoir charms Orla, even if she can't pronounce his name.
    It's all a bit raspy this week

  • Episode 65: Primer
    "Nothing bad happens in Silicon Valley now though"
    We don't think we've had a film that's quite as head scratching as 2004's primer. Felipe joins us to sort through the timelines and help make up our lagging Sci-Fi quota.
