In Episode 47 of Flickering Dreams I’m joined by:
- Scott Forbes from The Forbes Film and TV Review on Facebook;
- Emma Sewell from Emma@The Movies;
- The Reverend Andy Godfrey from Konnect Radio and Sorted Magazine; and
- Dan Cook of Dan Cook Movie Reviews on Facebook.
In this Hit-laden episode Bob, Scott, Andy, Emma and Dan review the following films:
- The Color Purple: the new musical treatment of Alice Walkers Deep South classic;
- The Holdovers: Alexander Payne’s awards-garlanded comedy/drama with Paul Giamatti;
- The End We Start From: Jodie Comer shines in a damp London;
- The Kitchen: Another form of dystopian London in a gripping drama by Daniel Kaluuya on Netflix.
Also given the quick once-over are the drama “Padre Pio” starring Shia LaBeouf and the documentary “Scala!” about the infamous Kings Cross cinema.
We also run through the UK/Ireland Top 10 at the box office and have the tenth edition of the film quiz: “Dr Bob’s Movie Montage Mystery”!
And in Any Other Business: we review the top nomination categories from the 2024 Oscars (the rest will be next week); some surprise nominations in the Razzies; we flag the upcoming Steven Spielberg-produced war epic “Masters of the Air”; we bid a fond farewell to director Normal Jewison and we give “Mean Girls” a second chance to be classed a “Hit!”.
