Cat Hostick on Midsommar
With her new series Poly is the New Monogamy freshly landed on Hollywood Suite, actor, producer, writer and director Cat Hostick is here to tackle Ari Aster’s sunlit creeper Midsommar -- you know, the one where Florence Pugh goes on a European vacation. Your genial host Norm Wilner isn’t going anywhere near that big stuffed bear.

Ant Timpson on The Naked Prey
Before his charming new film Bookworm opens Montreal’s Fantasia Festival on Thursday, producer and director Ant Timpson spends an hour discussing his love for Cornel Wilde’s 1965 survival thriller The Naked Prey. Your genial host Norm Wilner can see where he’s coming from.

Dave Merheje on Good Time
Juno-winning comedian and actor Dave Merhege – who co-stars opposite Daisy Ridley in Rachel Lambert’s affecting new drama Sometimes I Think About Dying – is here to praise the manic commitment of Robert Pattinson in Josh and Benny Safdie’s white-knuckle drama Good Time. Your genial host Norm Wilner is totally on board with this, as long as no one gets hurt.

Anna Fahr on Bashu, The Little Stranger
With her new film Valley of Exile opening across Canada this Friday, July 5th, writer-director Anna Fahr is here to discuss a lost masterwork of Iranian cinema: Bashu, The Little Stranger, Bahram Beyzai’s 1986 drama about an orphaned child and the woman who takes him into her home. Your genial host Norm Wilner hates that this story is still relevant four decades later.

Actor Shayelin Martin, who stars as determined teen surfer Goat in Caitlyn Sponheimer’s first feature Wild Goat Surf, now available on digital and on demand, is here to celebrate the comfort – and singing! – of Mamma Mia!, the 2008 Abba jukebox musical and international smash. Your genial host Norm Wilner has always admired Pierce Brosnan in this one.
Customer Reviews
Conversations I wish I had
It’s a real pleasure to listen to Norm and his guests dive into a movie , what works and why, the context of the filmmaker’s work. Just as much excitement and forethought is applied to 80’s action movie or a decent art house film. Not too pretentious, but never shallow. Love love love this podcast.
skip the men...
sadly we can’t skip the host but listen closely to the men...they have the language down but their true feelings (racism & sexism) come through loud and clear...
For people who really love movies
This is a podcast by, with, and for people who love movies. All kinds (the people and the movies)! Norm Wilner, the host, is a film critic, and his guests are folks who work in the film/entertainment business - in other words, these are always people who have spent a lot of time thinking about and working on movies, probably even making them their life's work. The conversations are in-depth appreciations, sometimes somber, sometimes funny, sometimes both. For someone who truly loves film, this podcast is like getting to hang out with "your people."
