1991 w/ 20TH CENTURY FLICKS: Beastmaster 2, Delicatessen, The Hard Way, Dogfight
Something a bit different for your lugholes this time - we are joined by the lovely Dave Taylor from 20th Century Flicks! Dave joins us to talk through our picks for the year of our Lord 1991 - the year in which Russ turned 3 which makes Toby feel extremely old. Dave runs (he claims) the oldest...

2022: Leonor Will Never Die, The Northman, Hundreds Of Beavers
We are BACK IN BUSINESS people - or for an alternative film reference you could say we're BACK IN THE HABIT or perhaps even STRIKING BACK (that could be Empire or Jay & Silent Bob, listener's choice). We've been away while Russ joined the Dad Club, making this episode the first offering in a...

1922: Nanook Of The North, Häxan, Nosferatu
103 years have passed between the screening of these films, and you listening to three men you don't know talk about them. Incredible. This week we're all about the early days of cinema. We're talking white cultural tourism, we're talking the birth of horror, we're talking the Kuleshov Effect. As...

2002: Bubba Ho-Tep, Sympathy For Mr. Vengeance, The Cat Returns
This week we're going way back into the mists of time...five years before the iPhone 1...to a land that narrowly escaped destruction at the hands of the Y2K bug. Yes, it's 2002, the year that catapulted The Rock to stardom as the worst CGI scorpion man ever. As ever we've got a fantastic…

1964: Kwaidan, Onibaba, Castle Of The Living Dead
That's right baby, we're back with a waffle-tastic bumper episode to kick start the new year! Or at least, sort of gently nudge the year along a bit. If it feels like it needs it. We're back to the swinging sixties this week, with all the usual features you know and (presumably?) love, as well as…

XMAS '24: Scrooge, Die Hard, LOTR: Fellowship Of The Ring
It's a very merry 'yippy-ki-yay, motherf*çker!' from us at Year Of The Film as we usher in our very first Christmas as a podcasting family. Like all classic christmas get-togethers there's presents, arguments about what does and does not constitute a christmas film, and even a listener email.…

CHRISTMAS SPECIAL TEASER
That's right baby, consider yourself teased. Watch this space for a fun, fireside fantasmagoria of a film-fuelled festive feast! And all the other f words. Year Of The Film Christmas Special coming your way on the 25th December (not the 28th December like we say in this teaser). Get in touch:...
-
1970: Trog/Taste The Blood Of Dracula, Valerie And Her Week Of Wonders, The Bird With The Crystal Plumage
1970, what a year. The beginning of the biggest decade of filmmaking (according to Toby), the birth of the blockbuster (according to Toby), the year film changed forever (according to Toby), and oh! Look at that. Toby's birth year, what a coincidence. Warning: contains one instance of a failed...

1993: Cliffhanger, So I Married An Axe Murderer, Naked
Well here we are, our trusty friend the Spin Doctor is back on side, and has gifted us none other than his own birth year! And what an all-over-the-place selection of films we have this week. From Thewlisocalypse to Sly Stallone's innovative arms-only climbing technique, join us in 1993 for…

1955: Pather Panchali, East Of Eden, Bad Day At Black Rock
1955. Everyone's favourite year in filmmaking history. You stop anyone on the street and ask them to list the Oscar winners from 1955 and they'll have gotten all the way to The Bridges at Toko-Ri before you can say 'please'. But is this episode in black and white, or in glorious technicolour?…

1986: Mona Lisa, Salvador, Soul Man
Aliens, Top Gun, Short Circuit, HIGHLANDER for goodness sake! A massive year for film, and apparently an even more massive year for Toby, though he won't say why. And the revelation that, as all serious film podcasters know, the mark of quality is not the depth of your knowledge or how many films...

2008: Mesrine 1 & 2, Splinter, Martyrs
Welcome to Year Of The Film! The podcast where instead of seeking out the latest cinematic releases, we're going back into the history of film to find hidden gems and new favourites to share with you all. And what better way to kick off a podcast that eschews the mainstream in favour of unwatched...
