What makes a movie or tv show truly legendary? Is it the script, the director, the music, the actor? Or is it the scale, the box office, or something hidden beneath the surface? This is what crime fiction authors Dr Luke Deckard and Matthew Booth (hosts of the hit podcast Mean Streets) want to know as they step out of the shadows of noir and into the wide world of popular cinema and TV. Each week on Cinema Sleuths, your hosts interrogate the films and TV shows that define our culture. From blockbuster thrills to the nostalgic heart of TV classics, Luke and Matthew will re-evaluate the "untouchable" classics, shine a spotlight on hidden gems, and tackle the latest hits and misses.
