About this listen

 Jett Loe & Gareth Higgins started talking about movies in 2006, and co-hosted a podcast for eight years. After a ten year break, they're back to discuss movies and the meaning of our lives - how we dream the world through cinema, what we can learn about life through the eyes of others, and how movies can help us get through hard times - and affirm us in the better ones.2024 Art

    Weapons / Terence Stamp
    Aug 27 2025

    As Gareth says in this show, WEAPONS is “a lament that absolutely earns its right to call itself a true story”. It’s the film of our age friends; we hope you enjoy this episode and our slight tribute to the wonderful actor Terence Stamp who's just passed.

    Superman
    Jul 16 2025

    Gareth and Jett disagree on one fundamental aspect of this picture Dear Listener, but other than that one thing, (a particular actor’s performance), they both agree SUPERMAN is a beautiful, and very necessary, work, that shows the importance of empathy and kindness in what is often a very cruel world.

    28 Years Later
    Jul 8 2025

    As Gareth Higgins says in this episode, “28 Years Later made me care about the people around me, it helped me care about strangers too.” He’s not wrong folks, this is a exquisitely beautiful film that conjures up the spirit of the films of Boorman, Powell & Pressburger, Leigh and Ramsey and we loved talking about it.
