Let's travel by boat to New York in 1947....look up! It's the Statue of Liberty; a symbol of hope and freedom for many.That's how this monumental and epic story begins.

Chris and Luke dive into this sprawling three and a half hour movie that, trust us, you do not feel and into the fantastic performances by its amazing ensemble cast as well as the excellent direction by Brady Corbet.

This is the American Dream....be careful what you wish for.

BAFTA and OSCAR-winning film composer Volker Bertelmann (All Quiet On The Western Front, Conclave) joins Chris and Luke to discuss his career, his musical upbringing and the wonderful ongoing collaborations he has forged with other composers and directors.

Volker is a fascinating and extremely talented individual who was so generous with his time and always open, honest and willing to share his hard-earned wisdom and life experience.

Join us for this insightful conversation and then head to your favourite streaming platform and listen to his music under his full name or as Hauschka. Enjoy!

Make sure you bring a set of tissues with you for this romantic tear-jerker starring Florence Pugh and Andrew Garfield.

Chris Austin and Luke Parker discuss the lead actors excellent performances and great chemistry as well as the effectiveness of the non-linear narrative and Bryce Dessner's moving score.

Adam "Tex" Davis is an Emmy-nominated screenwriter and director best known for his documentary series Brain Games and Brainchild and the classic teen rom-com Just Friends.

Chris and Luke got the opportunity to welcome Adam on to the pod and they touch on Adam's humble origins and beginnings as a screenwriter, his influences and inspirations, and they crazy encounters and journey he's had along the way.

Harvey Weinstein (aka He Who Must Not Be Named) bought one of his scripts, Leonardo DiCaprio produced another and Pharrell Williams produced his Netflix documentary series.

Adam "Tex" Davis was a delight and we hope you enjoy the conversation!

Chris and Luke head back to 1838 for this Gothic horror retelling of the 1922 classic Nosferatu, the latest mood piece by filmmaker Robert Eggers.

This already feels like a classic of the genre and an indication that Chris may be coming around on Eggers as a director.

Dark, horrific, tense, romantic (?), this is a great way to kick off Season Two!

Chris and Luke end Season One with a discussion of Edward Berger's new film, Conclave, with an all star cast of character actors set within the walls of the Vatican as the battle to appoint a new Pope begins.29
