A guy and his 17 year old daughter discuss the films and people of Old Hollywood.

Ok, maybe that oversimplifies it a bit. Derek is an educator with a degree in Film Studies, and Sam is an aspiring actress with close to 50 stage credits and an indy film under her belt. They've been watching movies together for a long time, and their shared interest in film history (Sam's been called an "old soul" by many people. and Derek's just old) drives this podcast.

    ILOM 58 - The Great Escape

    ILOM 58 - The Great Escape

    It's November, and that's when we like to take a look at war films. This time around, we look at one of (if not the) greatest prisoner of war film ever, The Great Escape. This is a film that holds a special place in Sam's heart, and is the sort of film we could talk about for hours. Both as a film, and an historical event, this tale is truly one for the ages! Have a listen and hear what we thought!

    ILOM 57 - Abbott and Costello Meet Frankenstein

    ILOM 57 - Abbott and Costello Meet Frankenstein

    So, have you ever thought about which film was THE one, that made you a fan? Sam and Derek sure have, and for Sam...this just might be the culprit! Part comedy, part horror, this greatest of the "Monster Rally" films set the standard for merging the two genres that we now know go together so well! Have a listen and let us know what you thing about this incredible film!

    ILOM 56 - Nosferatu

    ILOM 56 - Nosferatu

    Obviously, words like "...the most important film in the history of horror cinema" get thrown around all willy-nilly these days...but I ask you, if this film doesn't qualify for such praise, which one possibly could?

    We take an affectionate look at one of Sam's favourite films, and Derek's favourite vampire film, as we embrace spooky season with a watch of Nosferatu (1922). Have a listen and let us know what you think!



    Also, it's Sam's birthday! Give her a shout out for her 18th!

    ILOM 55 - The Alamo (1960)

    ILOM 55 - The Alamo (1960)

    Ok, so maybe we still have a bit more Davy Crockett to cover. And when that means we get to take a look at a John Wayne film, specifically an historical EPIC, directed by The Duke....well, how can we resist? John Wayne is one of Sam's favourites, so you know she's bringing her A-Level enthusiasm for this one! But is this film the masterpiece that John Wayne intended? Or is it a failed film from a woefully inexperienced director whose reach exceeded his grasp? Have a listen and hear what we thought!
