Episode 40: 1971 - The French Connection

Season 1 · Episode 40

Friday, September 19, 2025 • Duration 01:10:01

In our latest episode we're going back more than 50 years to 1971 where we'll be seeing Gene Hackman, a classic musical and another appearance from a podcast favourite...

On this episode we’ll be looking at a gritty New York crime saga that redefined the cop thriller in The French Connection, the sweeping yet tragic portrait of Russia’s doomed royal family in Nicholas and Alexandra, the timeless story of tradition and change in Fiddler on the Roof, a haunting exploration of lost innocence in The Last Picture Show, and Stanley Kubrick’s audacious, controversial vision of violence and control in A Clockwork Orange. Together, they capture a moment when Hollywood was pushing boundaries, questioning authority, and reshaping what a Best Picture nominee could be.

All this and our usual features, banter, trivia and insights!

Episode 33: 2006 - The Departed

Season 1 · Episode 33

Wednesday, December 13, 2023 • Duration 01:17:20

On this episode of 'Revisiting the Oscars' we're back to the mid-2000s for Scorsese's only Oscar win for 'The Departed'.

We may have recorded this at Christmas time but there's little Christmas cheer on show as the films we're talking about cover war, suicide and death by car accident, but don't worry - we'll do our best to brighten things up!

Films included on this pod alongside 'The Departed' are the globe spanning drama 'Babel', the aftermath of Princess Diana's death in 'The Queen', Clint Eastwood's Japanese war drama 'Letters from Iwo Jima' and a little independent road trip movie in 'Little Miss Sunshine'.

All this and the usual nonsense, banter and fun facts!

Season 1 · Episode 29

Thursday, May 4, 2023 • Duration 01:17:38

On this episode of 'Revisiting the Oscars' we're headed back almost 40 years to talk all things 1986 as we dissect the 5 movies nominated for 'Best Picture' that year!

Crocodile Dundee, Diego Maradona, Catchphrase and Top Gun were just some of the things making headlines in 1986, but what was happening at the Oscars....

We've got an interesting bunch to discuss this year that includes Robert De Niro playing a Spanish slave trader cum missionary in the oddity that is 'The Mission', a Woody Allen ensemble comedy in 'Hannah and her Sisters', ANOTHER Merchant Ivory period romance ('A Room with a View'), a romantic drama set at a school for the deaf ('Children of a Lesser God') and Oliver Stone's Vietnam War drama 'Platoon'.

All this and the usual nonsense and fun facts - who knew there was a Vatican Film List?!
