Failed Critics Podcast: Child Performances Triple Bill

They're heeeerrrrreeeee....And by 'they', we of course mean 'we'. We're here to host another triple bill edition of the Failed Critics Podcast!This week, Mike Shawcross and Matt Lambourne step into the fold along with regulars Steve Norman and Owen Hughes as they each pick their three favourite child performances in film. From sweary little girls, to doom-bringing seven year old boys, we've covered all of the best young performances that we could fit into 100 minutes of podcast.Amongst that, we did still manage to squeeze in a quick round up of who-won-what at the Cannes Film Festival, which closed this week. In keeping with the Cannes theme, Mike even watched a film called The Beaver that was first screened at the festival a few years back, starring Mel Gibson. And, as if we'd planned it (we didn't), Matt also watched a Mel Gibson movie as he looks back on the original 1979 Australian rampage film Mad Max. Meanwhile, Owen recounts his experience this past weekend at a Q&A with Al Pacino, whilst Steve quickly runs through 2012's Avengers Assemble and the latest season of Game of Thrones.Join us again next week as we look at Pacino's latest project Danny Collins, as well as the Rock's new disaster movie San Andreas.
