The monthly magazine podcast for the discerning film nerd. James Adamson is a slightly obsessive armchair fan, giving you his take on the world of cinema. So is James Adamson, his imaginatively named son and co-host. As well as a look at news, new releases and how we’re fitting in movie watching with our busy exciting lives, we look into tall tales of potentially great films that never got made, overlooked classics you need to see, and rants about remakes that should never have been made at all.

51.4 Spotlight on Paul Schrader: Bringing Out the Dead, The Card Counter
Thursday Aug 15, 2024
Thursday Aug 15, 2024
One more part to Issue 51 of the monthly magazine podcast for the discerning film nerd. As promised we've started up a series of Spotlight segments where we dig deeper into a single film or filmmaker. James is joined by fellow film nerd and Sunderland fan Calum to talk about legendary writer-director Paul Schrader. We look at the two parallel careers Schrader has had - as a writer for Scorsese and as a director of his own films. We take a closer look at his final collaboration with Marty - Bringing Out the Dead; then one of his own films, The Card Counter from 2021.
The other parts of Issue 51 are out now including Double Reel Monthly, Classics and Hidden Gems and the Remakes Tribunal. Issue 52 lands from August 25th.
