Free Spirits? Or Bad Attitude?

This… This was a tough one. Ok, so it’s probably best if Lewis and I lay our cards on the table straight away. We’re not interested in skateboarding or surfing or anything of that nature really. We have a hazy understanding of the culture surrounding these sports (or ‘sports’ if you’re being a curmudgeonly grandad…Continue reading “Free Spirits? Or Bad Attitude?”

Life isn’t like in the movies. Life… is much harder.

We’re back! Finally. Apologies dear Listener/Reader, Lewis and and I have been, well, a bit rubbish getting back to work after the Christmas break. Last year we released podcasts DURING the holidays. This year, we took the month off. Sorry about that. It won’t (it will) happen again. Hopefully this first podcast of 2013 isContinue reading “Life isn’t like in the movies. Life… is much harder.”

#45: Cinema Paradiso

What better way to kickstart a year than by discussing a film about the love of cinema.

Happy New Year 101ers!

Tch, this isn’t very good is it readers/listeners? First week of 2013 and Lewis and I haven’t got a podcast for you. The thing is we did record one, but on New Year’s Eve, at the stroke of midnight, Lewis and I (at our swanky New Year’s Eve party in old London town) made aContinue reading “Happy New Year 101ers!”

It’s the 101 Films 2012 Christmas Special!

For any listeners/readers who have Scrooge-like tendencies (Scrooge before the ghost visits of course), this might be the podcast for you. Although Lewis and I love Christmas – this is in fact our 4th Christmas Special podcast, we did two for 101 Video Games That Made My Life Slightly Better (see here and here) andContinue reading “It’s the 101 Films 2012 Christmas Special!”

Christmas Special 2012

This year we look at films that are set at Christmas but aren’t really about Christmas. Enjoy!

You still picking your feet in Poughkeepsie?

What is it about 101 Films and New York? Of the 44 films we have discussed, 7 of them, 16%, have been New York based. What does this mean? That New York is our spiritual home and that we should definitely record our 101st podcast there? Yes, lets say that. Lewis, pack your bags! Anyway,Continue reading “You still picking your feet in Poughkeepsie?”

#44: The French Connection

A film about two rough, tough fellas who bend the rules but get the job done dammit! Remind you of anyone? No? OK, fair enough.

The world is strange in rendez-vous

There’s been a sophisticated continental air recently at 101 Film Towers. In Podcast 038 we discussed the French film Hidden. We then took a Scandinavian turn with Podcast 040 with a look at Let The Right One In. In this week’s podcast we once more don our stripey jumpers, berets and onions for a returnContinue reading “The world is strange in rendez-vous”

#41: The Triplets of Belleville

Lewis and Ian treat themselves to some Gallic whimsy with The Triplets of Belleville.
