Fighting On Film

We are thrilled to bring you our second interview with actor and producer James Faulkner (back by popular demand!) James regales us with stories behind the making of the 1979 classic prequel Zulu Dawn. James explains setting up the battle sequences, what went into to producing the film and much, much more!Severin Films' 4K UHD Limited Edition re-release of Zulu Dawn is out now! - Check out severinfilms.com

This week we ask: can a stacked cast save a movie? Richard Burton, Robert Mitchum, Rod Steiger and Curt Jurgens star in 1979's 'Breakthrough', a sequel to 1977's 'Cross of Iron'. Can the sequel hit the heights of its cult predecessor? Join us to find out!

Zip up your SRU vests and prepare for take off! This week the boys cover 1990's Fire Birds, staring Nicolas Cage and Tommy Lee Jones, think Top Gun but with helicopters! With plenty of Apache action, Cage and Lee turning it up to 11 and Dale Dye positively stealing scenes, is the film just a Top gun knock off or does it offer something more?

Double Feature Friday is back! This time Matt gives us two end-of-the-century classics, both featuring Sean Connery, and Robbie goes for two Lumet-directed Al Pacino films! Let us know if you give either of these double features a go!

This week we take to the skies with Alec Guinness and Jack Hawkins as they struggle to defend Malta from the Luftwaffe onslaught in Brian Desmond Hurst's 'Malta Story'. We discuss steam rollers, Spitfires, production intrigues and miscasting, so be sure to join us!

This week we open up the FoF Archive and listen back to some of our favourite moments from the last 6 years of the show! Matt's away this time for work, so Robbie has enlisted the talents of 50s movie star and legally safe soundalike 'Hack Jawkins'...
