Series One - Episode 11: Guillermo Del Toro
The end is nigh, but not before we talk about Mexico's Guillermo del Toro and his lavish fantasy film PAN'S LABYRINTH.

Series One - Episode 10: Ang Lee
Ang Lee broke onto the filmmaking scene with PUSHING HANDS and managed to get even further by then making outstanding films such as CROUCHING TIGER, HIDDEN DRAGON, THE ICE STORM, HULK, BROKEBACK MOUNTAIN and, most recently, LUST, CAUTION. Hatter and I chose CROUCHING TIGER, HIDDEN DRAGON as our...

Series One - Episode 9: Danny Boyle
It was inevitable - and believe me, there will be SO-O-O-O much extra reading material on the blog (www.filmlocker.blogspot.com). We manage to break down all his back catalogue to some extent - and specifically focussing on TRAINSPOTTING as our film of choice.

Series One - Episode 8: Michael Mann
The big guns of 90's American filmmaking continue with a trip to the city of angels. This week we pull on our hockey masks, load up on guns and prepare to face the HEAT, with our mid-summer look at the work of Michael Mann

Series One - Episode 7: David Fincher
Having spent a couple of weeks with, how do I put it, more obscure directors, I have a feeling this will be a bit more popular amongst listeners as we have chosen David Fincher, the director of THE SOCIAL NETWORK, PANIC ROOM and FIGHT CLUB. We choose SE7EN to focus upon as our centre point...

Series One - Episode 6: Pedro Almodovar
The show gets some international flavour as we discuss one of the very best to come out of Spain. His films have been lush, melancholy, and heartwarming - sometimes all at once! Pedro Almodovar is in The Locker for Episode Six with special emphasis on his wonderful film, TALK TO HER.

Series One - Episode 5: Stanley Kubrick
After a week in the new school, we go back to a master. You might think he's brilliant, you might think he's pretentious - but for better or for worse Stanley Kubrick is in The Locker for Episode Five with special emphasis on his horror classic, THE SHINING.

Series One - Episode 4: Joel and Ethan Coen
Having spent two weeks covering film directors who may be a little off the beaten track, we regain the road by moving to younger and hipper folk in Joel and Ethan Coen. Having both watched both back-catalogues, Hatter and I argue it out with our favourites and not-so-favourite films with an...
-
Series One - Episode 3: David Cronenberg
This third episode in the series focuses on David Cronenberg ... as Hatter proudly tells us is Canadian. The film we choose to break apart is THE FLY, but we get deep into discussion about his other films DEAD RINGERS, EASTERN PROMISES and A HISTORY OF VIOLENCE.
-
Series One - Episode 2: Woody Allen
This week we change from one New-Yorker to another: Woody Allen. Hatter and Simon break through their likes - and dislikes - towards this controversial choice and then break down 'Hannah and Her Sisters' as, what they believe, is the best example of a Woody Allen film.
-
Series One - Episode 1: Martin Scorsese
Series One begins with Martin Scorsese in the locker. Hatter & Simon discuss all things Marty, focusing on GOODFELLAS in the feature discussion.
