Chris and Luke head to a divided Argentina in 1976 for this warm, heartfelt dramedy starring Steve Coogan and a penguin.

The movie may feel forced at times but its heart is in the right place and, again, the penguin, It makes all the difference.

Listen now!

Welcome to a special Film Club episode of Phoenix Cinema Podcast where we dive into the unofficial Bond film, Never Say Never Again, the Thunderball remake starring Sean Connery on his final return to the role!

Ralph D. Apel (Getting LOST) rejoins Chris Austin and Luke Parker and fellow Film Club member Hannah Tavares to dive into this 1983 Irvin Kershner directed film, made to challenge and go head to head with the Roger Moore-starring Octopussy that same year!

This was a fun discussion where we all have our say on the Bond franchise as a whole and even throw names into the ring for who we'd like to see as the world's most not secret agent next!

Fil Freitas is a filmmaker and Duty Manager of the world-famous The Prince Charles Cinema in London and what he's done is he's made a movie called THE REGULARS which is a film set at the PCC and starring the PCC staff (as well as a couple of professional actors) about a day in the life working at the venue and just trying to get through the shift.

Fil was a blast to speak to, clearly so intelligent about film and so generous with his time. This is truly a special achievement and we are so proud to be hosting a screening of this film at our venue.

THE REGULARS is a new feature film set to screen at Phoenix Cinema on April 30th, make sure you check it out and support independent cinema as well as independent filmmakers!

Veteran film director Barry Levinson teams with veteran producer Irwin Winkler to direct legendary actor Robert De Niro (in dual roles!) in what may very well be De Niro's final say on the gangster genre.

Join Chris and Luke as they dig into this film that has been a box office bomb but is not as bad as the critics have been making it out to be. Your mileage on this one may vary but, hey, you get double De Niro for the price of one!

Film composer Raashi Kulkarni joins Chris and Luke in the PCP studio and reveals her love of music and scoring started at a very early age through to her years spent learning on the job as an assistant composer for hit TV shows to making it on her own and being the sole composer on feature films.

Raashi was an absolute pleasure to talk to and a lesson in what it is to stay humble but incredibly resilient, hard-working and collaborative.

Look out for the upcoming A Nice Indian Boy soon to reach the UK shores and be sure to check out Raashi's delightful score for that movie as well as her other work all available wherever you get your music!

Producer and podcaster Ralph D. Apel (Getting LOST) joins Chris Austin and Luke Parker for an epic discussion about Ralph's multiple podcasts stretching back to 2006 as well as their favourite movie scores and composers and favourite Bond movies and everything but the movie we were meant to discuss. But that's the result of a great conversation. Time flew and we hope you enjoy one of our favourite guests so far!

It's the year 2054 and if you need a bit of money you can sign up to be an 'Expendable' someone who gets to join a space colony and if you die, no problem, you just get cloned!

Robert Pattinson stars in dual roles in Bong Joon-Ho's latest sci-fi action comedy, a rollicking good time with some truly off-kilter performances and a quirky tone that can only truly be Joon-Ho's.

Join Chris and Luke as they dive into this strange but wildly entertaining flick currently screening at Phoenix Cinema!

BAFTA-winning film composer Paul Leonard-Morgan (Limitless, Dredd) joins Chris for a chat about his career, musical influences and his upcoming projects.

Paul was a delight to speak to with a wicked sense of humour as you'll hear for yourself in this latest episode of the Phoenix Cinema Podcast.

Make sure to check out the film LAST BREATH at a cinema near you as well as the new Netflix documentary CHAOS: THE MANSON MURDERS to hear the latest scores from Paul Leonard-Morgan.
