The Sound of The Picture House episodes

  • The Omen. It's a Scary Filum.

    It's Haloween! Kevin and Mike take a good look, through their fingers, at Richard Donner's rather excellent 1976 thriller, horror. Lots to discuss, not least the casting coup that is Hollywood legend Gregory Peck, severed heads and scary doggies. Take journey to the dark side. Please.

    1 hr 37 min
  • It's a radio for speaking to God.

    Mike and Kevin dig into Raiders of the Lost Ark. Let's face it one of the greatest action adventure films of all time. Mike fanboys all over the place and Kevin does a terrible Mark Cousins impression. We also delve into 1981, and the fast approaching nadir of the UK cinema industry. Any other podcast means you are digging in the wrong place.

    1 hr 30 min
  • Jaws one not two.

    Kevin and Mike join the Jaws at 50 celebrations and dive into the film that is possibly year zero for movies. They also take a good hard stare at 1975, one of the greatest years for cinema. Exept for British cinema, which was mostly rubbish.

    1 hr 40 min
  • Bazza Lyndon is back.

    Restored in all of the K's, Kubrick's "coffee table book of a film" is as magisterial as ever and demands to be seen on the big screen. Kevin and Mike are back with some searing insights.* As well as a peek at what's coming up in the new big screen season. *may not be true.

    1 hr 17 min
  • He say you Blade Runner..

    A real big screen treat, Ridley Scott's box office flop turned mega cult hit Blade Runner. Mike and Kevin talk longevity, incept dates and all manner of nonesense. That and a dive into September 1982, when cinema in the UK was on its knees. What fun.

    1 hr 45 min
  • The Horror, the horror! Apocalypse Now.

    This month it's a journey up the river to meet the big bald Col Walter E Kurtz and lop his head off basically. Of course this masterpiece is way more than that, so hop on board and Join Kevin and Mike for a discussion and a few laughs as we also delve in to the cinema landscape of 1979. The horror, the horror.

    1 hr 45 min
  • The Apartment

    Billy Wilder's follow up to Some Like it Hot was a double whammy of genius. Best picture Oscars and all the box office. It remains one of the great American films. Kevin and Mike explore the themes and talk other nonsense from 1960. That's the way it crumbles, podcast wise.

    1 hr 30 min
  • Lawrence of Arabia

    Get on board your camels and take a trip into the desert as Mike and I bang on about one of the most spectacular films ever made. Davis Lean's masterful 1962 epic Lawrence of Arabia. Still selling out in Uckfield after all these years. Mad. Lots of other Epic chat too, with some soundtracks thrown in.

    1 hr 48 min
  • Chinatown

    Kevin and Mike talk all things film noir, even if Chinatown isn't really film noir. Discuss. The greatest screenplay ever written? You decide, because we can't.
