One of the great things about making Soho Bites is discovering films connected to the one I'm covering that I might not otherwise have seen. Currently watching "I Wake Up Screaming" (1941) which is an absolute belter!

The film we're discussing in the next episode is an austerity era post-war noir featuring a classic spiv and a major Hollywood star. The director is very keen to let you know where it's set...

This isn't just gossip. This is top grade Soho Bites gossip.
Thoroughly enjoyed @sohobites.bsky.social's Mona Lisa podcast. Am indebted to @alicatterall.bsky.social for pointing out that the young lady who tells Bob Hoskins to piss off when he asks for a cup of tea in the strip club is none other than JoAnne Sellar, Paul Thomas Anderson's producer-of-choice.

Over the years there have only been two Soho Bites Christmas specials - one of the films is brilliant and very wholesome and the other is terrible and borderline depraved... 1/3

The greatest terrible Soho film of all time is on @talkingpicturestv.bsky.social at 4:20am tomorrow - “Soho Conspiracy” (1950). The whole TPTV podcast team came on episode 16 to talk about it & Adrian Smith returned to tell us about the film's notoriously crooked producer, EJ Fancey 1/3
