    Godzilla Minus Zero, The Devils, Street Fighter and Tenzing

    🎬 This week on Celluloid Dreams! 🍿 Wednesday 4 November | 7:30 PM | 2SER 107.3 🎥 New Releases: Street Fighter, Godzilla Minus Zero and The Devils 🥊 Street Fighter The iconic video game returns to the big screen in a new adaptation filmed in Sydney. Lewis steps into the ring, but can colourful characters and spectacular fights deliver a knockout, or is this another video game adaptation that fails to land a punch? 🦖 Godzilla Minus Zero The King of the Monsters is back! Lewis unleashes his enthusiasm for the sequel to Godzilla Minus One. Bigger in scale and packed with human drama, can this Japanese blockbuster take the franchise to even greater heights? 🔥 The Devils Ken Russell's controversial 1971 masterpiece returns to cinemas in a newly restored, uncut edition. Evan revisits this confronting exploration of religion, politics, repression and power. More than 50 years later, has The Devils lost any of its power to shock? 📺 Stream It or Leave It: Tenzing (Apple TV) The historic conquest of Mount Everest gets a fresh perspective in Jennifer Peedom's Tenzing, starring Tom Hiddleston, Genden Phuntsok, and Willem Dafoe. Evan explores the remarkable story of Tenzing Norgay, head Sherpa on the historic 1953 Everest expedition. Does this beautifully crafted biographical drama reach cinematic heights? 🌟 Remembering Patrick Stewart Evan and Lewis pay tribute to the extraordinary career of Patrick Stewart, from Captain Jean-Luc Picard in Star Trek to Professor X in the X-Men films. A performer whose presence, humanity and talent left an indelible mark on generations of audiences. 📻 Radiothon continues! 2SER's Radiothon has been extended, so there's still time to support independent community radio and go into the draw for some fantastic prizes.
