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.

Simon and Jo Revealed in the Summer...

Some new videos filmed right outside Buckingham Palace ... obviously, when you hear my reaction to Jo's choice of top-film-of-the-summer, this was filmed before the last podcast because my view on it has changed...





Apologies about the lighting in the second video ... the question is this: bad lighting and buckingham palace? or good lighting and park in front of buckingham palace? [Like Big Brother] You decide.

We do have a bunch more videos and - on the right hand-side bar, or here - you just need to click on the link to be hooked up to all the previous videos we have done!
