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 61 is here as we pass the five year milestone of the monthly magazine podcast for the discerning film nerd. The first part of the Issue is Double Reel Monthly, with a look at news and new releases, reviews of new and notable films we've watched and our annual projects.
New films include Coogler and Jordan's striking horror musical Sinners, Japanese action sequel Bullet Train Explosion, Gareth Evans' much-delayed havoc and Nicole Kidman's streamer Holland. For our annual projects Alan discusses Hitchcock's Shadow of a Doubt and James finally dusts off an old film from his shelf in the form of Our Man in Havana.
Next week is Classics and Hidden Gems, with the Remakes Tribunal the week after that and there's another Spotlight episode in the works.
