For our Festive Fiftieth episode we take a loving look back over the highlights of films released over this past year, taking note of not just the films we loved, but the ones we felt represent 2020 in some way, and also those that let us down.   We also spend some time discussing our Christmas traditional viewings - those films that we find ourselves drawn to every festive season.  Which films ma...

Follow us over on Twitter and Instagram @filmfileuk, and be su...

We both checked out Mank this week, and take time to compare notes. Andy also lets us know what he thought of Cinderella Man, and Dolittle (why, we have no idea), whilst Lee made a more sensible choice and watched First Man.

A longer episode this week as we spend some time at the head of the show discussing the shock news of the closure of Cineworld and Regal cinemas, the impact on the industry, and the push to #SaveOurCinemas.   A topic close to our hearts, it was not one we could ignore, as we call for the government to support the arts, call for distributors to do what they can, and ask that those who feel safe to...

And remember #SaveOurCinemas

We get all 'Verbal' this week as we dissect our thoughts on The Usual Suspects.  Andy finally watched a film that has been sat in front of his TV for ages, and which he has owned on BluRay since release - and that is Black Swan.   We also have our usual discussion around the latest film news, and Andy manages to not go on a rant about a certain director for once.   All the fun chat and discussion...

Two delayed releases form the focus of the show this week, with Tenet and New Mutants both seeing the light of day, and giving us a reason to venture into a darkened screen for the first time in five months. Rest assured, our look at Tenet is spoiler-free (any spoiler related discussion is added to the end of the episode so is easy to avoid) We also have the usual roundup of news that has caught o...
