Gladiator
Despre acest podcast
We're Dan & Heather, a couple of movie lovers (and a couple, too). But strangely, there isn’t a lot of overlap in what each of us has seen. Heather is crazy for musicals and horror; Dan loves sci-fi and action. Between the two of us, there’s a surprising amount of blind spots.
In this podcast, we pick a movie one of us hasn’t ever seen before. We talk about what we know – or what we think we know – about the movie. Then after watching it, we do a deep dive into the film, discussing what makes the movie work (or not), how the movie has aged since it came out, and also get into the behind-the-scenes of the movie’s production.
One part comedy podcast, one part in-depth movie review, we tackle enormous hits you won’t believe one of us hasn’t seen and obscure favorites just out of the mainstream. If you’re ready for a distinctly unique perspective on movies you love, movies you hate, and movies you’ve always been curious about, give us a listen!
