Rewatched 48 Hrs and Eddie Murphy is still electric.

An untested film actor walking into a gritty crime film with total confidence and screen presence and changing the buddy cop movie dynamic in the process. Amazing.

We talk buddy movie evolutions here:

What we talk about when we talk about our favourite Coming-of-Age movies - The episode recorded as James was leaving home for uni #ComingofAge

[Daniel Malone @danielmal1]

Recording our most recent podcast felt special. We talked Coming-of-Age movies in honour of James leaving home for university; reflecting on films that capture life’s turning points and realising our own situation echoed the stories we were discussing.

New episode! North by Northwest

It’s Hitchcock’s ultimate “man on the run” thriller, but what will an 18-year-old make of its blend of style, wit and espionage, and will he get swept up in the fast-paced suspense?

With the @BFI Moviedrome season in full swing, I’ve been hunting for this - 
My ‘Letter of the Month’  in @SightSoundmag from 2013… remembering #Moviedrome and bemoaning the lack of classic movies on TV

New Episode! The Big Sleep & The Long Goodbye

One classic Film Noir, one Neo Noir; both iconic Chandler adaptations: but how will an 18-year-old react to hard-boiled dialogue, tangled plots, and a detective who talks to his cat? #FilmNoir

[Daniel Malone @danielmal1]

What started as a rewatch of The Big Sleep has ended in a Bogart-Bacall spiral, obsessively binging on the films they starred in together as Hollywood’s greatest onscreen pairing:
To Have and Have Not
The Big Sleep
Dark Passage
Key Largo

New Episode! Midnight Cowboy

The first and only X-rated film to win Best Picture, it broke boundaries with its raw honesty — but how will an 18-year-old react to the gritty realism, surreal style and frank look at masculinity? #MidnightCowboy

As one of the most iconic images in 70s cinema, Travis Bickle’s mohawk reveal in Taxi Driver is a striking, almost primal transformation that signals his descent into chaos and his commitment to conflict. A visual shock that stays with you long after the film ends #FilmTwitter

[‘You Talkin’ to Me?’ Film Podcast @TalkinFilm]

New Episode! Taxi Driver

Scorsese’s iconic tale of loneliness and obsession still stuns, but how will a 17-year-old react to Travis’s descent into madness within the seedy underbelly of 70s New York?

Thrilled to have a letter featured in the latest issue of @SightSoundmag . I share my thoughts on the end of @totalfilm as a print edition and the uncertain future of film magazines

[‘You Talkin’ to Me?’ Film Podcast @TalkinFilm]

What I love about Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid is how it breaks the mold: instead of bar brawls and corny showdowns, Butch and Sundance spend the film running from trouble. It’s about survival, rather than conflict—turning classic Western tropes on their head in 1969.

New Double Episode! Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid + The Sting

Two all time classic movies and two huge movie stars, but how will a 17 year old react when faced with this much charm and charisma? #RobertRedford #PaulNewman
