  • Episode 74: S05 E07: Millennial Shakespeare
    Richard and Greg review three Shakespearean films made either side of the year 2000.  Shakespeare is known for raising the Big Questions – and this episode is no exception.  Which of our podcasters is the worse at trying to sound Shakespearean?  Are they better or worse than American actors at this?  Are podcasts like the theatre, where the Scottish Play must not be mentioned by name?  And (most importantly of all) what DID Shakespeare have against Norway?

  • Episode 73: Christmas Special 2024
    We don’t know about you, but Richard is flabbered and Greg is gasted that this is our Tenth Christmas Episode!  As usual, they review three Christmas films in search of that special seasonal something.  Two films are liked more by one reviewer than the other – whereas the third is universally found wanting, sadly.  This last outcome is likely to be a wee bit controversial.  As is perhaps the source of their disagreement about one of the others.

  • Episode 72: S05 E06: Sleeping with Leonard
    Richard and Greg grew up admiring one US and three Australian movie reviewers.  Back in 2019, US-based Leonard Maltin was asked by “The Movies That Made me” podcast to pick movies from each decade of the past century that he wished were better known.  Richard and Greg dare to pick up Maltin’s mantle to review three of these “sleeper” films for themselves (with apologies to Mrs Maltin for our presumption in naming this episode…) House of Games (1987)  http://tinyurl.com/fmfw-05-06-games  Pollyanna (1960)  http://tinyurl.com/fmfw-05-06-pollyanna  The Last Command (1928)  http://tinyurl.com/fmfw-05-06-command OTHER RESOURCES Podcast in which Leonard Maltin picks movies more people should know about https://tinyurl.com/maltin2019

  • Episode 71: S05 E05: Planes, Trains and Automobiles
    Richard and Greg choose a film for three modes of transport (somehow forgetting about the 1987 Steve Martin / John Candy film).  Although the films are scattered across the 20th Century, our reviewers find that all stand up well to the test of time – suggesting that this episode should have been called “Transports of Delight”.  But which film had “the most obnoxious movie kids ever seen”…?

  • Episode 70: FM/FW Mini E04: Gladiator 2
    Quo Vadis?  To see the new Gladiator film!  They may not have swords or togas, but Richard and Greg make the pilgrimage to a newish Melbourne cinema to see an ancient-ish Roman story.  What did they think?  Is it thumbs-up or thumbs-down?  (And if it’s thumbs-down, does director Ridley Scott get thrown to the lions…?)  You know that there’s only one way to find out: kick your sandals off and hit the Play button.Gladiator 2 (2024)  https://tinyurl.com/fmfw-minisode-04
