Excellent podcast about a lost genre of movies

I listen to a lot of film podcasts and this is definitely one of the best. The team works together really well (Amelie is my favourite) and the discussion is well-informed, funny and sophisticated.

Great podcast! So niche so good!

Great in depths reviews of the last decade of classic Hollywood cinema.
Really lovely hosts and particularly the French woman (and her accent). Makes you wanna see (again) all these gems including the rotten ones. You have to know how to watch bad films to appreciate true masterpieces.

Perfect Slice of Nostalgia.

I really enjoy the Fatal Attractions podcast. It's great for remembering those films you'd forgotten about (Often on purpose). The chat is always interesting and funny and with 4 very different takes on it. It's helped me look at things from a different perspective and made me see things in these films I'd never noticed before. I especially like the inclussion of Amelie Thomas. She often has a different take on stuff, and it's her ideas that often lead to my alternate view of things. Keep up the good work. :)
