I find big brains to talk about old science fiction films: The content and the cultural history.
I love it so much I made this Venn diagram to show you what it’s about. 🤓

The Czech film Ikarie XB-1 (1963) is a known influence on Kubrick's 2001: A Space Odyssey (1968). I adore both of these shots. The next podcast episode will be about Ikarie XB-1 (if all goes well).

"Queen Bette Davis. Impeccable. If sass was a film this would be it."

The Cinema Legacy Poll is a bunch of amazing and lovely film podcasters who invited me to submit my top 50 films of all time.
And then not make fun of me when I am personally outraged when my favourite films aren’t in the top ten. 😂
24?! For All About Eve?! I am outraged I tell you! Outraged! 😉

I have a slight fixation with this film. And Kubrick. Kubrick should stop bothering me all the time. 😂 Why is he so good?
Ayesha from @everyscififilm.bsky.social had this to say about The Shining (in the top ten of her list submitted):
"Terror, symmetry, symbolism, plot, pace, character, set design, sound, framing. Kubrick is a master."

Richard Mathesons I Am Legend gets its first and perhaps best adaption. Credibly chilling and dripping with palpable dread and a desperately desolate Price. 1964.

I think of Invasion of the Body Snatchers as good marketing strategy so this is perfect. 😉

Oh look - it’s me popping up on Ayesha’s marvellous science fiction cinema podcast again! This time featuring triffids! Come have a listen - I had a proper giggle recording this.
The Day of the Triffids (1963) feels like a very 1950s film made in 1963. John Wyndham’s 1951 book of the same name, however, was a big hit and kicked off his writing career.

Panic in Year Zero shows US civilisation fall apart after nuclear attack. Part road movie, part how-to manual, part patriarchal delight.
I spoke to academic John Wills and psychiatrist Steven Schlozman about hankering for the apocalypse, the daddy gaze, nuclear education and painted houses.

I was nervous but it vanished once I got up there. I faced my fears and it taught me nothing about B2B marketing. 😂 Which means, like John Snow, I still know nothing.
