The Movies of 1999

To celebrate the 25th jubilee of what is considered by many to be the greatest year of cinema I’ll be hosting a movie night each weekend for the entire year. This podcast is my invitation to you to join us for the ride. Venture back with us to the before-times when movies could be daring and unpredictable and different to anything anybody had seen before. See you at the movies!

Jason and Craig settle their creative disputes by deciding to record a magnificent podcast about Mike Leigh's detailed and authentic costume drama "Topsy Turvy", before moving to the Hollywood Hills to explore the seedier side of film production in the grim "Hurlyburly". See you at the movies!

This week Craig and Jason head to death row, travelling back to Louisiana in 1935 to watch yet another performing mouse in Stephen King's "The Green Mile", before following Clint Eastwood around modern day Oakland, California in the disappointing "True Crime". See you at the movies!

Placeholder no more... Jason returns from Vietnam and immediately catches up on his movie watching so he can join Craig for a mid-week update. The fellows first delve into "10 Things I Hate About You" before emerging like newborns into the modern world of 1999 in the rip-van-winkle-esque "Blast From The Past". See you at the movies!

Jason and Craig, aka "The Rocket Boys", blast into space to reminisce about the fifties in the acronymic love letter to science and engineering that is "October Sky", followed by us heartily disagreeing on the George Lucas big space movie blockbuster "Star Wars Episode I: The Phantom Menace". See you at the movies!

Craig starts following Jason everywhere... or is it the other way around? Only Christopher Nolan knows in "Following", his feature directorial debut. Craig then prances about as he dodges through a field of laser beams to find out more about Catherine Zeta-Jones and Sean Connery in our second former-James-Bond-art-thief-romances-an-insurance-investigator movie of the year in "Entrapment". See you at the movies!

Craig experiences M. Night Shyamalan's "The Sixth Sense" for the very first time, having remained unspoiled for the last twenty-five years! He and Jason then marvel at the big-budget "Stuart Little" featuring CGI that was well ahead of it's time, at the time. See you at the movies!

Craig and Jason re-unite this week and are joined by a very special guest: Drew Morrow! Tune in for an in-depth discussion of the topical political satire Bulworth and the shaky-cam fly-on-the-wall sports movie Any Given Sunday, but stay for Drew's bombshells, including the Banksy reveal... see you at the movies!

This week Craig runs away, so it's only Jason hosting a very short podcast. We begin with the exciting "Run Lola Run", which was so good that we watched it twice. We were then disappointed with the terrible "Runaway Bride"... the less said about that the better. See you at the movies!
