In the 1980s, there were only 63 Black films by, for, or about Black Americans. But in the 1990s, that number quadrupled, with 220 Black films making their way to cinema screens nationwide. What sparked this “Black New Wave?” Who blazed this path for contemporaries like Ava DuVernay, Kasi Lemmons and Jordan Peele? And how did these films transform American culture as a whole? Presenting The Class of 1989, a new limited-run series from pop culture critics Len Webb and Vincent Williams, hosts ...

Our podcasters are back. Finally. But this seasonal opener is about firsts, not finals (despite the third film’s title). Richard and Greg review three feature films that were the first in their day to use the latest technology – for sound, vision and movement. But how do these films stand up today? Does the technology serve or drive the story? And what was the role played by Alka-Seltzer?

This is our first-ever minisode for a movie that is NOT a sequel. Richard thought that he was dragging Greg into a Horror film, but it turns out that he was dragging himself into a Musical. While it may not be the first-ever Vampire Musical (that was possibly “Buffy” S06 E07), it’s undoubtedly a first for vampires that River Dance. Feel free to do a bit of the ol’ River Dancing while listening. Unless of course you’re driving or using heavy machinery. Sinners (2025) https://tinyurl.com/fmfw-minisode-05…
Richard and Greg join their partners Niniane and Naomi to discuss films chosen by the aforementioned Wheel. Who agrees with whom? And, more interestingly, who doesn’t?? Season 5 ends with the quartet celebrating an Australian comedy classic that has become both beloved and iconic – to which our podcast can only aspire. * The Indian in the Cupboard (1995) http://tinyurl.com/fmfw-05-10-indian * In the Mood for Love (2000) http://tinyurl.com/fmfw-05-10-mood * The Castle (1997) http://tinyurl.com/fmfw-05-10-castle…
In this episode, we move from Greg’s comfort zone (whodunnits) to Richard’s (Italian pronunciation). Our reviewers discuss three Italian films that made it in the English-speaking world. Two made it to the Oscars, and all have something to say about “la condizione umana”. And then, in preparation for the season finale, Richard and Greg try something new – the Cinematic Wheel of Fortune (complete with sound effects!) • God Willing (2015) http://tinyurl.com/fmfw-05-09-willing • Il Postino (1994) http://tinyurl.com/fmfw-05-09-postino • Life is Beautiful (1997) http://tinyurl.com/fmfw-05-09-life…
Greg takes Richard into classic Agatha Christie territory with a French director’s Hollywood take on a British novel. After examining the British class system, they finish with a largely forgotten whodunnit film written by Psycho actor Anthony Perkins and West Side Story composer Stephen Sondheim. And if that doesn’t get you in, nothing will. What is Richard’s problem with filmic murder? And is it OK for Death to be funny?

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?

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.

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…

Greg admits to watching his first-ever Tarantino film. If that’s not crime enough, Richard corners him into summarising the plot of David Lynch’s mystifying “Mulholland Drive”. But Greg triumphs by bringing a credible explanation to the table that could possibly involve goldfish on a casting couch. Or does he…?

Richard and Greg jump across the local “pond” from Australia to review three New Zealand films from world-renowned directors Lee Tamahori, Peter Jackson and Taika Waititi. While they have similar responses to two of these films, our film reviewers are (South?) poles apart for the third. Not to worry! For Greg brings a “Kiwi moviegoer’s sensation on a stick” into Richard’s life, revived from a past Roman holiday.

Richard and Greg “get the movie habit” by inviting a professional nun (Auntie Marie) to discuss Nun Films. She shares her joys and deeper reflections for a comedy and then a drama. But, like the Holy Trinity, we always do things in threes. For her final choice (a nun-free film), Greg notes that “Not many people would expect a nun to love a film with mob murders and ladies of doubtful moral virtue”. Which film is it? Let’s just say that the sting is in the tale… Sister Act (1992) http://tinyurl.com/fmfw-05-02-sister Dead Man Walking (1995) http://tinyurl.com/fmfw-05-02-walking Plus a nun-free film (click in to find out)…
Following Broadway and TV precedents, DC Comics has just released its first musical feature film. But it might not be the best idea for DC Fanboy Greg to see the new Joker film with the not-terribly-comical Richard… Are they inspired to sing along with Lady Gaga? Will Greg take the opportunity to get Richard doing the “Batusi” dance in the aisles?
