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 are his co hosts: James Adamson, his imaginatively named son, and Alan Bayles, a sci fi author, fellow film nerd and fellow Sunderland fan. 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 classic films we haven't seen yet and overlooked hidden gems you need to see, ask remakes to justify their existence or be wiped from history and offer parole hearings to bad films that need to be remade to fix their flaws.

Issue 57 of the monthly magazine podcast for the discerning film nerd concludes with the Remakes Tribunal, where we put bad filmmaking on trial. Our Remake on Trial is Michael Mann's Public Enemies, which we compare to previous versions of the same story including 1973's Dillinger. Then we offer a Parole Board hearing to the genuinely terrible 1966 film Modesty Blaise, and ask if a remake would fix its problems
The first two parts of Issue 57 are already out, including Double Reel Monthly and Classics & Hidden Gems.
