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 59 of the monthly magazine podcast for the discerning film nerd kicks off with another Double Reel Monthly, with a look at news, new releases, reviews of new films and our annual project for 2025.
Includes reviews of new films The Monkey, Bridget Jones: Mad About the Boy, Mickey 17, The Gorge and The Electric State, as well as a look back at Borderlands, Film Stars Don't Die in Liverpool and The Quiet Man. For our annual projects, Alan continues catching up on Hitchcock with pioneering real time thriller Rope, and James digs out another film he's owned for years without watching: Brazilian police thriller Elite Squad.
Next week we'll bring you another helping of Classics and Hidden Gems in part 2 of the issue.
