War Movie Theatre | for Fans of Classic War Films and Cinema History
Love classic war movies? So do we. From Troy to World War II to Vietnam to Aliens, we analyse which war films work and what they say about us.
Banned from watching old war movies by their families, writers Robert Hutton and Duncan Weldon meet in their secret basement to discuss why the navy don’t simply sail round the other side of Navarone, and why everyone is too old in Saving Private Ryan. Each week, a different film, sometimes brought along by a guest. From Powell and Pressburger’s Colonel Blimp to Starship Troopers to Where Eagles Dare to A Bridge Too Far, we’ve got you covered.
What will win the Broadsword Radio Prize For The Most Implausible Moment?
Who will take the Cooler King Award For Most Gratuitous American?
And what gets the coveted Dam Busters Dog Prize For Most Problematic Moment?
