"Hey what should we call this film?" "How about we name it after Tom Cruise's character?" "So 'Miller'?" "No his character's actual name." "What, Knight?" "Yeah!" "But you don't learn that until the end of the film." "Doesn't matter...oh and we should add 'and day' afterwards. "Who is Day in the film?" "Nobody." "So why Knight and Day?" "Because that's the expression!" "Uh huh."

Jan 29 2025 33 mins

Hey remember that crime noir thriller that Michael Keaton directed and starred in back in 2008? Yeah, me neither. But we watch it anyway, because sometimes we here at BWBFC do the heavy lifting so you don't have to. You're welcome!

SE02EP26: Kotch (1971)

Jan 08 2025 35 mins

So Walter Matthau made a very successful career playing slightly curmudgeonly but reasonably endearing older (or old) men. Here, directed by his close friend Jack Lemmon, he is cast as a much older man who is a bit curmudgeonly and (eventually) reasonably endearing old man. So really a risky casting decision. But did it pay off? Tune in and find out what we thought.

SE02EP23: Arthur Christmas (2011)

Dec 18 2024 31 mins

A film that dares to ask the question: What if Santa Claus and his operations ran a bit more like the British monarchy? As it turns out, the answer is remarkably well! Except when it doesn't, in the smallest possible way. But don't worry, heroes are sometimes named Arthur!

SE02EP22: Christmas In Connecticut (1945)

Dec 11 2024 33 mins

Sure, we all know what Christmas would be like in New York and Chicago and probably LA, but the real burning question is what would Christmas be like in Connecticut? Well assuming you've got a very posh farm and a bunch of people all lying to each other or themselves, then this film will let you know!
