Terry Gilliam – „Time Bandits“ (1981)

Die Kritik hat nicht viel mit diesem Meisterwerk der Phantasie damals nicht viel anfangen können. Doch das hat niemanden von uns davon abgehalten, ihn lebenslänglich zu lieben. Und jede:r von uns hat eine andere Geschichte darüber. Für mich ist er vermutlich eines der größten Geschenke, das ARTE mir machen konnte.* Und bei 12 Monaten (!) Verfügbarkeit in der Mediathek gibt es einfach keine Ausreden, die Abrufzahlen nicht so absurd hochzutreiben, wie der kleine, feine Kultsender sie noch nie zuvor gesehen hat! Dafür braue ich aber ihre Hilfe! (ARTE, WH)

FILMS… Returning to a Bond with the Gorgeous Gina Lollobrigida, an Always Bella, Bella Actress

Gina Lollobrigida shows she’s made of stern stuff in A Woman of Straw… Remembering this outstanding Italian Golden Hollywood actress heading a British cast in a 1960s British thriller.

@d4doome This was one of three films that I always associate with my dad, because he loved them enough to enthuse and encourage me to watch them. (A Matter of Life and Death and Olivier's Henry V were the others). I remember as a kid him explaining the POV angles, which he loved. It may also have fuelled the start of my love affair with #RalphRichardson

The other great Carol Reed-Graham Greene collaboration, a year before The Third Man, was The Fallen Idol (1948). A story of growing up, of trust, of lies and of secrets. Lies and secrets can be well-intentioned but have bad results. Great film.

Having survived the apocalypse, Andrew and Dave have decided to pursue a far more meaningful goal: selling coffee in the northern parts of the UK! Okay, maybe they aren't selling coffee in the north, but Mick Travis, the protagonist of director Lindsay Anderson's O Lucky Man!, certainly is. What do the podcasting duo make of Anderson's not-exactly-a-sequel-to-If.... epic comedy? Is this the most likeable Malcolm McDowell has ever been on screen? And just how stellar is Alan Price's score to the film? Tune in and find out!Next Episode: Before Jackson, there was... BAKSHI!All music by Andrew Kannegiesser. Editing by Dave Babbitt.
