    Kermode The Frog

    In celebration of Wicked’s emerald-hued protagonist, our One Frame Back theme this week is green characters... which verdant vista will win out? Thanks for your excellent picks from Shrek to The Mask—in the words of Kermit the Frog, it’s not easy... This week’s bonus reviews are ‘Landman’, a stetson-sporting Texas oil industry drama series where Billy-Bob Thornton’s maverick businessman Tommy Norris tries to climb the greasy pole—and ‘The Battle for Kyiv’, an urgent Ukraine war documentary by journalist Oz Katerji bringing frontline reportage from the conflict and putting the spotlight on the remarkable resistance of the Ukrainian people. Meanwhile, mystery BBQs and phallic baked goods in this week’s correspondence, plus Questions Schmestions on movie cigarettes, unpopular TV show opinions (shocker: Mark isn’t a Love Island fan), and where to start for ‘King-curious’ readers who love the horror writer’s screen adaptations. Some heavyweights in the ring for this week’s Weekend Watchlist/Notlist, with Martin Scorsese’s ‘Raging Bull’ in the Watchlist corner and flabby MMA drama ‘Here Comes The Boom’ taking a battering on the Notlist, plus loads more titles on the telly. We’ll hear your picks and Mark’s.

    Is Wicked Pop-u-lar with Mark?

    Thomasin McKenzie is this week’s guest—star of Edgar Wright’s ‘Last Night in Soho’, Mark’s film of the year 2018 ‘Leave No Trace’—and now ‘Joy’, a new Netflix drama about the development of IVF treatment at Oldham hospital in the 1970s. Written by Jack Thorne, the film’s medical miracle story is focalised through McKenzie’s character Jean Purdy—a talented embryologist whose work was key to the team’s breakthrough discovery, but whose name was left out of the history books. She chats to Simon about putting Jean back in the picture in this latest in a line of meaty and challenging roles for the young actor. Reviews this week of ‘Blink’, a poignant documentary following a family determined to travel the world and create precious visual memories for their three children, who are losing their sight—and Amrou Al-Kadhi's debut drag queen drama ‘Layla’, which follows the story of the titular performer (Bilal Hasna) as they discover their confidence and creativity whilst navigating their queer Arab identity. Plus the much-anticipated stage-to-screen musical ‘Wicked’. The Wizard of Oz prequel stars Cynthia Erivo as green-skinned misfit Elphaba, and Ariana Grande as glam girl Galinda, both still witches-to-be as they forge an unlikely and rocky friendship at university. We find out if Mark thinks it’s going to be ‘Pop-u-lar'... Plus top quality correspondence from you and typical witterings from the Good Doctors as per.

    When politeness gets Your head chopped off...

    Literally the most terrifying correspondence ever on this week’s Take 2 as we discover—inspired by ‘Heretic’—just how far you Vanguardistas will go in doing stupid and scary things in the name of politeness. Plus more of your thoughts on the small hill of Japanese grammar pedantry, and whether ‘The Substance’ should be a silent movie. Extra reviews this week are ‘Joy’, the Jack Thorne penned period drama starring Bill Nighy, Thomasin McKenzie and James Norton, who play the pioneers of IVF working medical miracles against the odds and much opposition—and Armando Iannucci’s slick satire going behind the scenes of a superhero movie, ‘The Franchise’, starring Himesh Patel. Long-awaited sequels are the theme of this week’s One Frame Back as we dig into the cinematic follow ups that we spent years asking for (not to mention those that absolutely nobody did). Some big hitters on the Weekend Watchlist, big turkeys on the Weekend Notlist, and your Questions Schmestions on the grimmest films (120 days of Sodom), the gentlest films (I Know Where I'm Going!), and Mark & Simon’s all-time worst rude awakenings.

    Sir Ridley Scott on Gladiator II

    ‘Gladiator II’ director and legendary one-man blockbuster factory Ridley Scott is our guest this week. He joins Simon to discuss the long-awaited sequel to 2000’s modern classic, in which this time Paul Mescal plays Lucius, the long-exiled son of Russell Crowe’s Maximus. He finds himself back in Rome as a prisoner from his now-conquered adopted homeland, and must outfight and outwit his opponents and captors whilst guarding the secret of his ancestry. Simon talks to Ridley about swords, sandals, CGI and how he knew Paul Mescal would make a great Roman. We find out what Mark makes of the high-octane epic– do its mega action sequences jump the (Coliseum-swimming) shark? Plus we’ve got two more reviews of ‘The Last Dance’, a punchy drama set amidst the Hong Kong funeral business from director Anselm Chan—and ‘Christmas Eve in Miller’s Point’, a kooky indie holiday comedy with an ensemble cast including Matilda Fleming, Michael Cera and Francesca Scorsese. Spoiler alert – if a catastrophic weather event happened at Miller’s Point, Mark wouldn’t mourn its disappearance. More top takes from the Good Doctors.

    We learn a little about Simon’s unconscious in today’s Take 2 with a bit of dream analysis, plus correspondence on movie museums down under and more of your reactions to the scrunge of The Substance. Bonus reviews of Pharell Williams doc ‘Piece By Piece’, which charts the star musician & producer’s rise through lego-movie style animation; and the rerelease of Kathryn Bigalow’s action classic ‘Point Break’, where Keanu Reeves and Patrick Swayze catch some waves as an undercover FBI rookie and the beach bum he’s been assigned to investigate. This week’s One Frame Back is the best film aunties in honour of Paddington’s Aunt Lucy to coincide with the release of ‘Paddington In Peru’.

    Red One makes Mark explode in birdsong

    Simon goes on a leafy adventure with Hugh Bonneville to talk ‘Paddington In Peru’, the latest addition to the most kind and polite of all cinematic universes—and for those of us who need cheering up this week, their conversation is just the tonic. The film sees Britain’s favourite bear journey back to his native land with the Brown family on a quest to visit Aunt Lucy. Pass the marmalade sandwiches. Plus, Mark reviews ‘Blitz’, Steve McQueen’s wartime drama starring Saoirse Ronan as a mother attempting to navigate a bombarded London with her young son; Andrea Arnold’s free-spirited social realist drama ‘Bird’ starring Barry Keoghan; and, as we enter the Christmas Corridor, ‘Red One’ in which the North Pole’s head of Security (played by Dwayne Johnson) teams up with an infamous bounty hunter (Chris Evans) to save a kidnapped Santa Claus.

    Mark Has a Cameo in a Movie!

    Simon’s interview with Billy Crystal was so brilliant we had to put some of it in Take 2. Sit back and enjoy some wonderful anecdotes and insights from the comedy great. Bonus reviews include ‘Super/Man: The Christopher Reeves Story’, an illuminating retrospective on iconic Superman actor Christopher Reeve’s bravery and heroism in his own personal life in the wake of a life-changing spinal injury; and ‘Midas Man’, a biographical film about the life of music entrepreneur Brian Epstein, best known for managing The Beatles – our very own Mr Kermode has a cameo! This week’s One Frame Back is the best films featuring sex workers to coincide with the release of Sean Baker’s ‘Anora’. Mark and Ben take us through what’s worth watching and avoiding this week with the Weekend Watchlist/ Weekend Notlist. Plus, the duo answer your Questions (film-related) and Schmestions (non-film-related) - from Mark’s thoughts on why ‘The Godfather Part II’ is considered to be superior to ‘The Godfather Part I’ to their literary advice for a Vanguardista’s 8-year-old son with a love of writing.

  8. When Simon Met Billy (Crystal)...

    When Simon Met Billy (Crystal)...

    This week, Simon is joined by the one and only Billy Crystal to talk all about his starring role in the Apple TV+ psychological thriller series ‘Before’, which sees a child psychiatrist who, having tragically lost his wife to suicide, encounters a troubled young boy who seems to have a haunting connection to his past. Their conversation is intelligent, insightful and so long that we had to put some of it in Take 2. Truly, one for the K&M ages! Meanwhile, Mark reviews ‘Small Things Like These’, a period drama that sees Cillian Murphy play a devoted father who uncovers disturbing secrets at the local convent, which leads him to discover shocking truths about his own past; ‘Heretic’, a Hugh Grant-starring horror about two mormon missionaries who attempt to convert a seemingly normal man, only to find themselves fighting for their lives in a deadly game of cat-and-mouse; and ‘Anora’, the Palme D’Or-winning latest from Sean Baker, which sees a young sex worker impulsively marry the son of an oligarch, only to have her fairytale threatened when the news reaches his family. Another stellar week at the Take. We’ll have what Simon’s having!

  • Ever wondered why Frasier Crane is such a snob? How Tyrion Lannister’s bawdy humour saves him in Game of Thrones? What makes Schitts Creek’s Moira Rose a narcissist? ‘Shrink the Box’ is where actor comedian Ben Bailey Smith and psychotherapist Nemone Metaxas put their favourite fictional characters such Tommy from Peaky Blinders and Sydney from The Bear on the couch - to analyse why their behaviour causes them so much drama. Nemone and Ben explore why these characters make certain decisions, what would happen if they made different ones and what we can learn from their mistakes. The perfect combination of psychology, self-help and the best TV since the birth of the box-set. We would love to hear your theories: shrinkthebox@sonymusic.com A Sony Music Entertainment production.
