    The Movies That Made Me: Season 2: Episode 8: Rock & Pop

    Frank Sinatra and Harry Belafonte, Doris Day and Dorothy Dandridge were all music stars who became movie stars.

    Singer Al Jolson even made the first talkie but it was Elvis Presley who broke the mould, then shaped a new one.

    The Movies That Made Me... Season 2: Episode 4: Favourite Final Scenes

    It's the last day of the year: What better time to discuss the last scene of a movie?

    Six in fact as Luke Sorba is joined by playwright / comedian / actress/ improviser/ TV presenter and Life Coach: Alison Goldie. One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest Ikiru Dead of Night Black Narcissus Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind Parasite All contend for the prize of Favourite Final Film Scene. Along the way we discuss famous freeze frames and staring faces, one-liners, re-unions, deaths and all the other ingredients that make up a classic closing moment. Learn our Producer Andrew Paine's choice (a contender for most memorable death, closing line and freeze frame all at once). And we end with the best closing musical moment EVER. Warning: There will be spoilers. But they will be worth it! TMTMM is a Picard Production. Hosted by Luke Sorba. Produced and Edited by Andrew Paine

    The Movies That Made Me: Season 2: Episode 2 - FIGHTING The War of the Words, Motions Eleven, The Mild Bunch... not actual films but titles that conjur the feel of this week's movie debate as: Script Editor and former Curzon Magazine film critic Martha "The Mace" Julier squares up against Former Actress and Teacher of English Literature and Media Studies Katie "The Catapult" Purslow to make the case for their Favourite Movie Fight Scenes. Refereed by Luke "The Long Sword" Sorba, Fights not Battles means no to (Abel Gance's) Napoleon, Saving Private Ryan or Avengers: Endgame. But yes to Enter the Dragon, Charlie's Angels (2000), Seven Brides for Seven Brothers, Aliens, The Raid and... Bridesmaids! Download now, it's a knock out. TMTMM is a Picard Production.

    Oct 19 2024
    The Movies That Made Me: Season 2: Episode 1: BUILDINGS Welcome back to The Movies that Made Me. To celebrate the host's birthday we are launching Season 2 on October 20th, with BUILDINGS. The cinema you watched them in, is not the only building that matters when it comes to memorable movies. Some legendary films are as well known for their locations as they are for their plots, even their stars. Award-winning Radio Producer Mandy Wheeler and Actor/Photographer and Blue Badge Guide Sean Patterson join me as we discuss our favourite buildings on film, real or invented, from Gothic to Dystopian, Modernist to Fairy Tale and focussing on The Innocents, Rebecca, Brazil, Blade Runner, Die Hard, North by Northwest and Beauty and the Beast.
