It's A Wonderful Life

Season 1 · Episode 11

Wednesday, December 31, 2025 • Duration 01:47:08

Welcome to Never Seen The Godfather with Lorna and Sarah! Each week we dive into a popular film with someone who has never seen it and someone who loves it, and we discuss it. Are these films worth the hype? What have we been missing?

You boy! What day is it? Why, it's the belated return of Never Seen the Godfather, of course! Join Sarah and Lorna as they discover the joy and staying power of Frank Capra's It's A Wonderful Life (1946). Listen as they realise what proportion of the film is made up of the backstory, try to figure out the business operations in the town, and explore the harrowing fate of a woman working in a library wearing glasses. They cosy up to the holiday season realising that there are more important things in life than money, though it does help when the town saves you from going down for embezzlement.

Tuesday, December 24, 2024 • Duration 01:26:34

Welcome to Never Seen The Godfather with Lorna and Sarah! Each week we dive into a popular film with someone who has never seen it and someone who loves it, and we discuss it. Are these films worth the hype? What have we been missing?

WARNING: This podcast contains NO MUPPET EXPERTS

God bless us, every one! It's the Christmas Special, here to warm up drafty houses (though it's even worse for mouses). This week the girls are discovering their love of 1992's The Muppet Christmas Carol and appreciating Muppet star power for the first time. It's a Dickens story with music, Muppets, and more humans than you would expect. Join us as we go through the beats of a familiar story, lyrics that make us laugh, clever character quirks, the scenes that had Sarah crying, and Lorna's real feelings about Tiny Tim. Happy Christmas and New Year to our listeners, we love you to pieces (even more so to those meeces)

Hope you all get coal this Christmas (complimentary) xxx

Thursday, August 24, 2023 • Duration 01:07:29

Welcome to Never Seen The Godfather with Lorna and Sarah! Each week we dive into a popular film with someone who has never seen it and someone who loves it, and we discuss it. Are these films worth the hype? What have we been missing?

Join us this week for the 1993 classic Jurassic Park - starring Laura Dern and Indiana Jones-coded Sam Neill, directed by Steven Spielberg. We try to string together a plot we've never appreciated before, fight for Lex's place in the movie, and discuss the unknown dangers of divorce (sending your children to a dinosaur park).

Primal Fear

Season 1 · Episode 9

Wednesday, August 14, 2024 • Duration 01:18:26

Welcome to Never Seen The Godfather with Lorna and Sarah! Each week we dive into a popular film with someone who has never seen it and someone who loves it, and we discuss it. Are these films worth the hype? What have we been missing?

This week the girls are going straight from horror to horrified! Staying in what is fast becoming their favourite year (1996), Sarah shows Lorna all the gory intrigue of Primal Fear. This film's double twist leaves much to be discussed, though we do try to find time to figure out what these other plots are about and we do not succeed. It's two hours of great performances, overt musical cues, American legal jargon and some goddamn Catholic representation. Sarah marvels at Richard Gere's second best performance as an arrogant lawyer in Chicago and Lorna worries if Roy is going to get her.

Scream (1996)

Season 1 · Episode 8

Wednesday, August 7, 2024 • Duration 01:44:40

Welcome to Never Seen The Godfather with Lorna and Sarah! Each week we dive into a popular film with someone who has never seen it and someone who loves it, and we discuss it. Are these films worth the hype? What have we been missing?

I scream, you scream, we all scream... and we're still screaming. Someone call Gail Weathers because Lorna and Sarah are venturing into the horror genre for the first time with the 1996 Wes Craven film Scream and it's big news. We're not braving it alone though, as we are joined by horror expert Emily Long to guide us through one of her favourite films. The girls are on a journey of discovery this week, asking questions like what are the rules of a horror movie? Do we like cheesy lines or hate them? Is there more than one killer? And who the fuck is Randy? We also discuss the concept of the final girl, and in this podcast you have not one, not two, but three of them to carry you to the end.

Welcome to Never Seen The Godfather with Lorna and Sarah! Each week we dive into a popular film with someone who has never seen it and someone who loves it, and we discuss it. Are these films worth the hype? What have we been missing?

Double double toil and... children? Listen up ye old hags - this week we're watching the 1993 Halloween staple Hocus Pocus which takes us to Salem with witch trials, talking cats, and puritans. Is it historically accurate? Who cares! We believe in women's rights and we believe in women's wrongs - but if Winifred, Mary and Sarah are wrong then we don't want to be right. They put a spell on us, and now... you know the rest.

Ring ring ring - the trolley's heading away (or something)! We love Judy Garland and we're not afraid to say it. Have you ever stood somewhere awkwardly just to be near someone you fancied? Have you performed a party piece with your siblings? Have you tried to commit mass murder aged 5 on Halloween as a prank? Then this episode is for you! All of this and more (ice cream, wages, our favourite extras, and the mysterious case of Warren to name a few) as we discuss Meet Me in St Louis (1944).

This week we're dreaming of Rome as we dive into the 1952 star vehicle 'Roman Holiday' and welcome our first guest and Hepburn expert, Maia Purdue. Join us as we meander through the longest afternoon in cinema, mull over what makes a story romantic, and marvel at the three most beautiful things every committed to film (Audrey Hepburn, Gregory Peck, and Rome - in that order).
