TSAJFS: 30/01/2011 Black Swan/Barney's Version/NEDS

Blimey Charlie! This week sees the release of Darren Aronofsky's Black Swan and both Simon & Jo get stuck right into the film with a discussion of its story, style and themes. They've also managed to check out a couple more new releases this week, Simon gives his frank views on Barney's Version while Jo holds court on NEDS, directed by Peter Mullan.


Some exciting films to consider, plus the usual assortment of movie news stories, featuring an initial reaction to the Oscar Nominations and rumours about Annie, the Matrix saga and Tron: The Next One. There's plenty of lively debate and some interesting insights, tune in for a week of angry ballet, grumpy men growing old and violent Scottish teenagers.

The Simon and Jo Film Show: 22/08/2010

This week, following a chance encounter with an Oscar-winning director, Simon and Jo tackle the big-budget mega-mainsteam The Expendables and the Best Foreign Picture winnier The Secret in their Eyes.

A slight shuffle to the usual podcast to keep it fresh and exciting as we move into the news, the feedback and shoutouts and then the Top London Box-Office. Simon and Jo both choose their recommended new releases and recommendation trailers - namely Love and Other Drugs and Black Swan.

We finish by continuing with Billy Wilder Odyssey by watching Sunset Boulevard and the best Picture Odyssey by harking back to 1982 with Richard Attenboroughs Gandhi.

All music is from The Expendables, available through itunes, whilst the final track is, obviously, Thin Lizzy: The Boys Are Back.
