Description

The 27th edition of the Next 100 Project takes us into inner-city Los Angeles. John Singleton’s debut is a “suburban war film” (compliment) and he directs some tremendous performances (big compliment). Cuba, Cube, Chestnut, Fish and Bassett couldn’t be any better. Powerful flick. Order from our sponsor Sparkplug Coffee, put on your mustard-coloured shirt and dig into the Hood!

Ryan and Bev Ellis are partners in film nerdery who share their often humorous musings on the AFI's 1998 & 2007 lists of the greatest 100 American films ever made. But we finished with that in December 2015, so now we just review anything we feel like!

Foxy Brown: Blaxploitation movies were very popular with audiences 50 years ago. Jack Hill's Foxy Brown is a classic largely because of Pam Grier, who was not only a staggering beauty with 12/10 sex appeal, but she also plays a badass you could root for. And her... by Have You Ever Seen

Ninotchka: Ernst Lubitsch is one of the directors of the classic era who hasn't stayed in people's minds as much as others have. He's not as revered as, say, Billy Wilder...who happens to be a co-writer of Ninotchka. But Ernst had the famous "Lubitsch Touch",... by Have You Ever Seen

Horse Feathers: Hey, it's a surprise podcast! A little bonus magic here in mid-January. Well, it's been more than 10 years since the Marx Brothers have come up on Have You Ever Seen, so they were due. Norman McLeod's football comedy is just as anarchic as Groucho,... by Have You Ever Seen
