The regular Flickering Dreams film review podcast features this week:
- Dr Bob Mann from One Mann’s Movies & film reviewer on BBC Radio Solent;
- Emma Sewell from Emma @ The Movies on X; and
- The Reverend Andy Godfrey, lead film critic for Konnect Radio and Sorted Magazine.
In this episode Bob, Emma and Andy review the following films:
- Wicked Little Letters: A foul-mouthed comedy based on a true libel case;
- Madame Web: A Sony Marvel offering that gets a good kicking!;
- The Taste of Things: Juliette Binoche in a gorgeous looking confection;
- Mea Culpa: An erotic thriller on Netflix (that gets even more of a kicking!); and
- Memory: Peter Saarsgard and Jessica Chastain in a dementia drama.
We also run through the UK/Ireland Top 10 at the box office and (on the video version only) play the next round in our highly competitive Film Quiz with just 2 weeks left for this round of the contest.
And in Any Other Business: we look at the new Ian McKellen version of “Hamlet” (with a very important DVD cover!); we look at a new Sci-Fi streaming from this weekend called “Tropic” and in a new feature – “Rant corner” – Bob has a rant about the demise of Mark Kermode’s show on Scala Radio and Andy has a rant about the rating change for the beloved “Mary Poppins”.
