SciFI Films 1952 to 1982 PT2
Season 2, Ep. 12
•
In the first section we conclude our look at science fiction films, covering 1972 to 1982. It does not occur to us to ask 'Who would win in a fight between an armed ape on horseback and a Xenomorph?'
But in our second section we do try to nominate the most important and influencial science fiction film of 1952 to 1982.... or is it all time?

20. Summer Recommendations 2 - Film
01:01:48||Season 5, Ep. 20In the heat of summer why not retreat to the air conditioned cinema for a big budget blockbuster? Are there any? We discuss recent films we have seen, and discuss upcoming films we are excited to see and others not so. Kevin then gets to list actors whom bookies are backing for the role of Bond. Dave bets Kevin's list will be metaphorically yellowed and fading by the time someone is hired. If your ten year old is telling everyone they are going to be an action movie actor when they grow up, give Amazon a call.Full links at:https://www.kevinspetchcreative.com/news.htmlWe make no revenue from links or recommendations.Hosts Kevin Petch, Rob Wood and David Benn.Produced by Kevin Petch for Out Of Left Field.Thanks for supporting 5282.

17. Depressing Musicals
01:16:23||Season 5, Ep. 17Who doesn't love a big uplifting film musical? Dave. And quite a few people, if cinema audience numbers are anything to go by. What about musicals that deal with Fascism, recession, poverty, dashed hopes and the grim inevitability of the love of your life turning out to be a bit of an arse? Turns out there is a lot to think about - and discuss - when it comes to depressing musicals.Kevin, Mel and Phil each offer a film to consider, and Phil then goes for two wickets in one over with a early Bollywood classic.Remember, the hills are alive but it's the sound of jackboots marching towards you.Full links at:https://www.kevinspetchcreative.com/news.htmlWe make no revenue from links or recommendations.Hosts Kevin Petch, Melanie Delaney, Phil Todd and David Benn.Produced by Kevin Petch for Out Of Left Field.Thanks for supporting 5282.

14. David Bowie Part Two
01:19:04||Season 5, Ep. 14Following an epic Part One with Phil and Mel, we were unable to fit our Hunky Dory conversation in. So here it is, in all its glory, in Part Two. Then, we welcome music writer Steve Walsh to the studio to discuss The Rise and Fall of Ziggy Stardust and the Spiders from Mars, Aladdin Sane, Pin-Ups, Diamond Dogs and Young Americans. We talk about how Bowie constantly reinvents himself during this very creative period, while invariably leaving behind a whole host of loyal musical collaborators in his wake.Look out for Part 3 in 4 weeks time, in which we'll be joined by Darren Worth, to discuss Station to Station, Low, Heroes, Lodger and Scary Monsters (and Super Creeps).Full links at:https://www.kevinspetchcreative.com/news.htmlWe make no revenue from links or recommendations.Hosts Kevin Petch, Steve Walsh, Melanie Delaney, Phil Todd and David Benn.Produced by Kevin Petch for Out Of Left Field.Thanks for supporting 5282.
