Jaws (1975) | The Cutting Room
15 september 2023 · 54 min
The mechanical shark barely worked. Steven Spielberg's fix, keeping it hidden for most of the film, accidentally invented the modern blockbuster and frightened a generation out of the sea. Lees meer
Jaws (1975) was the runaway, over-budget production that made Spielberg's name and the summer blockbuster along with it. Roy Scheider, Robert Shaw and Richard Dreyfuss head the cast, the open-ocean shoot tested everyone's patience, and John Williams turned two notes into pure dread. The direction, the writing, that improvised line and the Indianapolis speech all get their due, and then it's three scores out of 10 from John, Westy and Matt. Does the original blockbuster still need a bigger boat?

15 september 2023 · 1 uur 12 min

Not heard how McMurphy lands on the ward? That's all in Part 1.

Luke, Westy, and Matt continue the story, picking up at the rooftop showdown.We dig into the crew behind the film — the Aykroyd and Ramis screenplay, Elmer Bernstein's score and Ray Parker Jr.'s inescapable theme, and the pioneering effects work — before breaking down the finale, the box office phenomenon, and the franchise it launched.

Ghostbusters (1984) | Ep. 25 - Part 1
1 september 2023 · 1 uur 7 min

Luke, Westy, and Matt begin the story of how it became one of the great comedies.In Part 1 we cover the film's opening, director Ivan Reitman, the cast, and the second act — including Bill Murray's improvised Venkman, the trio setting up shop, and the script being trimmed from cosmic to comic.Who you gonna call? Part 2, for a start: the crew, the finale, the reception and the legacy await there. Out now. Lees meer

O Brother, where art thou? (2000) | The Cutting Room
25 augustus 2023 · 48 min
How do you turn Homer's Odyssey into a Depression-era prison-break comedy with a chart-topping bluegrass soundtrack? Only the Coen brothers would attempt it, and somehow they made it sing. Lees meer
Their freewheeling musical comedy O Brother, Where Art Thou? (2000) stars George Clooney, John Turturro and Tim Blake Nelson as three escaped convicts loose in 1930s Mississippi, with T Bone Burnett's soundtrack becoming a phenomenon all of its own. The Coens' direction and writing, the pioneering digital colour grading and the Man of Constant Sorrow craze get talked through in full. Luke, Westy and Matt close it out with a highlight each and scores out of 10. Does the old-timey odyssey strike a chord?

18 augustus 2023 · 1 uur 9 min
Are you watching closely? John, Westy, and Matt begin the story of Christopher Nolan's twisty tale of two rival magicians and the obsession that consumes them both.In Part 1 we cover the film's opening, director Christopher Nolan, the cast, and the second act — including Hugh Jackman and Christian Bale's escalating feud, the structure that folds back on itself, and the deadly secrets each man keeps.There's a trick here you won't see coming, and we're not spoiling it.

Back to the Future (1985) | The Cutting Room
4 augustus 2023 · 51 min
Five weeks into filming, the studio looked at the footage, panicked, and fired their leading man. Eric Stoltz was out, Michael J. Fox was in, and he ended up shooting a hit sitcom by day and a classic by night. Lees meer
That near-disaster became Robert Zemeckis's Back to the Future (1985), the time-travel comedy Steven Spielberg produced and a DeLorean made immortal. Fox and Christopher Lloyd's Doc Brown anchor it, the script is a masterclass in setup and payoff, and the whole thing essentially got made twice. John, Luke and Matt run through the recast, the science, the standout sequences and their final marks out of 10. Roads optional.

Fight Club (1999) | Ep. 23 - Part 2
4 augustus 2023 · 49 min

Luke, Westy, and Matt continue the story, picking up as the ground shifts beneath the narrator.We dig into the crew behind the film — the screenplay adapted from Chuck Palahniuk, the Dust Brothers' score, and Fincher's meticulous visual trickery — before breaking down the finale, the disastrous-then-glorious reception, and the film's outsized legacy. Plus the hosts' final verdict and scores.The whole set-up is in Part 1 — Fincher, the cast, the slow unravelling. Go back if you've not. Lees meer

Fight Club (1999) | Ep. 23 - Part 1
4 augustus 2023 · 1 uur 7 min
The first rule is well known. The fact that the studio marketing it had almost no idea how to sell it is less so. Luke, Westy, and Matt begin the story of David Fincher's anarchic adaptation.In Part 1 we cover the film's opening, director David Fincher, the cast, and the second act — including Edward Norton's insomniac narrator, Brad Pitt's Tyler Durden, and the bruised, grimy world Fincher builds around them.The twist is still coming, and we're keeping our mouths shut about it for now. Part 2 spills it — the crew, the finale, the reception and the legacy. Out now. Lees meer

The Godfather Part II (1974) | Ep. 22 - Part 2
21 juli 2023 · 1 uur 4 min
De Niro won an Oscar playing a younger version of a character Brando had also won an Oscar for, the only time that's ever happened. John, Westy, and Matt continue the story as Michael's empire and family fracture. Lees meer
We dig into the crew behind the film — the Coppola and Puzo screenplay, Nino Rota's score, and Gordon Willis's shadowed cinematography — before breaking down the finale, the six Academy Awards, and the legacy of one of the greatest sequels ever made. Plus the hosts' final verdict and scores.
For both threads from the start — Coppola, the cast, the first half — Part 1 is the place.

The Godfather Part II (1974) | Ep. 22 - Part 1
21 juli 2023 · 59 min
A sequel that's also a prequel, telling two stories at once and somehow surpassing a masterpiece. John, Westy, and Matt begin the story of Coppola's towering follow-up. Lees meer
In Part 1 we cover the film's opening, director Francis Ford Coppola, the cast, and the second act — including Robert De Niro as the young Vito, Al Pacino's Michael hardening into something colder, and the dual timelines weaving together.
Michael's reckoning with his own family is still ahead. Part 2 closes in: crew, finale, reception, legacy. Out now.

The Blues Brothers (1980) | The Cutting Room
19 juli 2023 · 48 min
A mission from God, supposedly. Also the most cars ever wrecked in a single film at the time it was made, a record it kept for years. Lees meer
John Landis's gleefully chaotic musical comedy The Blues Brothers (1980) grew out of Saturday Night Live and pairs John Belushi and Dan Aykroyd with a soundtrack of genuine legends: James Brown, Aretha Franklin, Ray Charles and Cab Calloway. The runaway budget, the demolition-derby car chases, the cameos and the music all get the full treatment, and then Luke, Westy and Matt each rate it out of 10. It's 106 miles to Chicago, but is the trip worth taking?

Glengarry Glen Ross (1992) | The Cutting Room
14 juli 2023 · 52 min
Always be closing. Coffee is for closers. Put that coffee down. Alec Baldwin's seven-minute evisceration of a room full of desperate salesmen wasn't even in David Mamet's original play. It was written for the film, and it became the most quoted thing in it. Lees meer
The film is Glengarry Glen Ross (1992), James Foley's adaptation of Mamet's Pulitzer-winning play, with a cast so stacked the actors reportedly took pay cuts just to be in it: Jack Lemmon, Al Pacino, Ed Harris, Alan Arkin, Kevin Spacey and Jonathan Pryce, all chewing through that machine-gun Mamet dialogue.
Luke, Westy and Matt get into the writing, the performances and the sheer cruelty of it, then settle the verdict with three scores out of 10. Will it close?

All The President's Men (1976) | Ep. 21 - Part 2
7 juli 2023 · 47 min
A film about an unfinished investigation ends not with a bang but a teletype, and it's perfect. Luke, Westy, and Matt continue the story of Pakula's thriller. Lees meer
We dig into the crew behind the film — William Goldman's Oscar-winning screenplay, the score, and Gordon Willis's masterful cinematography — before breaking down that ending, the awards haul, and its standing as the benchmark for journalism on screen. Plus the hosts' final verdict and scores.
If you've not heard Part 1 — Pakula, the cast, and the middle — go back and start there.

All The President's Men (1976) | Ep. 21 - Part 1
7 juli 2023 · 1 uur 6 min
The film recreated the Washington Post newsroom so precisely that it had real Post rubbish shipped across the country to fill the bins. Luke, Westy, and Matt begin the story. Lees meer
In Part 1 we cover the film's opening, director Alan J. Pakula, the cast, and the second act — including Redford and Hoffman as Woodward and Bernstein, and the dread Pakula wrings out of phone calls and paperwork.
The investigation's far from filed. Part 2, covering the crew, the finale, reception, and the film's legacy, is available now.

Return Of The Jedi (1983) | Ep. 20 - Part 2
16 juni 2023 · 59 min
The Ewoks divided fans for decades, but the puppetry and creature work that brought Jabba and the rest to life was state of the art. John, Westy, and Matt continue the story, building to the duel aboard the Death Star. Lees meer
We dig into the crew behind the film — the screenplay, John Williams's score, and the creature and effects work from ILM — before breaking down the finale, the reception, the endless special-edition debates, and the legacy. Plus the hosts' final verdict and scores.
For how the rescue unfolds — Marquand, the cast, the first half — Part 1 is the place.

Mad Max: Fury Road (2015) | The Cutting Room
2 juni 2023 · 49 min
Thirty years in development. Six months in the Namibian desert. And almost every insane stunt you see happening for real, because a director in his seventies flatly refused to fake it. Lees meer
Mad Max: Fury Road (2015) is George Miller's two-hour chase that swaps dialogue for delirium, with Tom Hardy and Charlize Theron leading the charge (and, by most accounts, barely speaking to each other off camera). John, Westy and Matt break down the practical mayhem, Margaret Sixel's Oscar-winning edit and the flame-throwing guitar guy, then say where it lands on their scorecards. Witness it.

There Will Be Blood (2007) | Ep. 19 - Part 2
2 juni 2023 · 52 min
Jonny Greenwood of Radiohead wrote the eerie, dissonant score, and it's now considered one of the finest of the century. John, Westy, and Matt continue the story as Plainview's empire and soul curdle. Lees meer
We dig into the crew behind the film — the screenplay loosely drawn from Upton Sinclair, Greenwood's extraordinary score, and Robert Elswit's Oscar-winning cinematography — before breaking down the finale, the reception, the Day-Lewis Oscar, and the legacy. Plus the hosts' final verdict and scores.
Part 1 is the rise of Plainview — Anderson, the cast, the first half. Start there if you've not.

Luke, Westy, and Matt continue the story, picking up as the truth of the house comes out.We dig into the crew behind the film — Peele's Oscar-winning screenplay, Michael Abels's score, and the cinematography that turns suburbia sinister — before breaking down both endings, the reception, and the film's seismic cultural impact.

Luke, Westy, and Matt begin the story.In Part 1 we cover the film's opening, director Jordan Peele, the cast, and the second act — including Daniel Kaluuya's breakout, the uneasy weekend at the Armitage house, and the dread Peele layers under every polite smile.The sunken place isn't the half of it.

The Thing (1982) | The Cutting Room
12 mei 2023 · 55 min
Savaged on release. Buried by a friendlier alien playing two screens over. Now? Widely held to be one of the greatest horror films ever made. John Carpenter's The Thing (1982) stars Kurt Russell, features practical creature effects so extreme that Rob Bottin worked himself into hospital, and ends on the most argued-over freeze-frame in the genre. John, Westy and Matt judge it, and score it, out of 10. Trust no one. Lees meer

Pulp Fiction (1994) | The Cutting Room
10 maart 2023 · 1 uur 1 min
What's in the briefcase? Quentin Tarantino has never told a soul, and thirty years on, the glowing contents remain cinema's favourite unsolved mystery. Lees meer
His 1994 crime mosaic scrambled chronology, resurrected John Travolta's career overnight, and turned Samuel L. Jackson, Uma Thurman and half its dialogue into pop culture. The Jack Rabbit Slim's dance, the overdose, the diner stand-off: John, Westy and Matt take the lot, alongside Tarantino's writing and direction, then hand down three scores out of 10. And no, they still won't tell you what's in the briefcase.

Goodfellas (1990) | The Cutting Room
24 februari 2023 · 53 min
Real mobsters worked as extras on this one. They handed the studio fake Social Security numbers, and to this day nobody knows how they got paid. Lees meer
That's the kind of authenticity stitched through Goodfellas (1990), Martin Scorsese's adaptation of Nicholas Pileggi's Wiseguy and one of the most quoted gangster films going. Ray Liotta, Robert De Niro and a genuinely frightening, Oscar-winning Joe Pesci drive it, the famous Copa tracking shot took eight takes, and the early test screenings were such a bloodbath that one comment card was two unprintable words. John, Westy and Matt unpick all of it and rate it out of 10. Funny how it all worked out.

Almost Famous (2000) | The Cutting Room
17 januari 2023 · 50 min
What happens when a film critic turns the most formative year of his own life into a movie? Cameron Crowe found out, and won an Oscar for the screenplay in the process. Lees meer
Luke, Westy and Matt hit the road for Almost Famous (2000), Crowe's semi-autobiographical love letter to 1970s rock journalism. They cover Crowe's direction and deeply personal writing, a cast led by Patrick Fugit, Kate Hudson's Penny Lane, Billy Crudup and a scene-stealing Philip Seymour Hoffman as Lester Bangs, and the real bands and backstage chaos that inspired it all. The Tiny Dancer singalong, the golden god, three standout moments, then a final score out of 10 each. Does the rock-and-roll coming-of-age tale hit the right note?

The Lord of the Rings: The Two Towers (2002) | The Cutting Room
2 december 2022 · 59 min
How do you film a battle that runs the best part of an hour, almost entirely at night, in the rain? You shoot for months, you wear out everyone involved, and you emerge with Helm's Deep. Lees meer
Peter Jackson's The Two Towers (2002) is the middle chapter of The Lord of the Rings, the one that had to bridge two other films and still ended up many people's favourite of the three. It also gave us Gollum, and with him a motion-capture breakthrough from Andy Serkis that quietly changed screen acting.
John, Westy and Matt get into Jackson's direction, the writing, the New Zealand mega-production shot all in one go, and the sequences that still hold, before settling on three scores out of 10. Does the bridge bear the weight?

Aliens (1986) | The Cutting Room
12 november 2022 · 56 min
The marines wake from hypersleep in twelve chambers. The production could only afford four. The other eight? Mirrors. That kind of make-do genius runs right through Aliens (1986), James Cameron's ferocious follow-up to Alien. Lees meer
Cameron went to war with his British crew to get it made, firing a cinematographer and trashing the tea trolley along the way, built a 14-foot Alien Queen by hand, and handed Sigourney Weaver's Ripley one of the great action roles. John, Westy and Matt cover the production battles, the practical effects, the Vietnam influences and the rest, then score it out of 10. Stay frosty.

Platoon (1986) | The Cutting Room
8 november 2022 · 51 min
Before a single scene was shot, Oliver Stone marched his cast into the jungle for two weeks of brutal military training. He wanted them exhausted, and as a Vietnam veteran himself, he knew exactly what that felt like. Lees meer
Stone's searing, semi-autobiographical war drama gets pulled apart in full: the direction, the writing drawn from his own tour of duty, and a cast led by Charlie Sheen, Tom Berenger and Willem Dafoe as the two sergeants at war with one another. There's the punishing Philippines shoot, the real soldiers behind the characters, and that unforgettable death scene, before Luke, Westy and Matt each hand Platoon (1986) a score out of 10. Does the Best Picture winner still hit as hard?

Titanic (1997) | The Cutting Room
22 oktober 2022 · 52 min
One night during filming, someone laced the crew's clam chowder with PCP. Eighty people ended up in hospital, hallucinating. It's one of the strangest things ever to happen on a set, and it barely registered amid the chaos around Titanic (1997). Lees meer
James Cameron's epic ran wildly over budget, briefly became the most expensive film ever made, then went on to be the highest-grossing and an eleven-Oscar juggernaut. Leonardo DiCaprio, Kate Winslet, a colossal water tank, and a director with a fearsome reputation. John, Westy and Matt weigh the romance, the spectacle and the scale, then deliver three scores out of 10. The door debate included.

The Banshees of Inisherin (2022) | The Cutting Room
11 oktober 2022 · 51 min
What do you do when your best friend decides, out of nowhere, that he simply doesn't like you any more? On a small Irish island in 1923, the answer involves a set of shears and several fingers. Lees meer
That grim, very funny premise powers Martin McDonagh's The Banshees of Inisherin (2022), the tragicomedy that reunited his In Bruges pairing of Colin Farrell and Brendan Gleeson, with Kerry Condon and Barry Keoghan alongside them. The direction, the razor-sharp writing, the Irish Civil War rumbling away in the background, the beloved donkey and the awards haul all come under the microscope. A highlight each from Luke, Westy and Matt, three scores out of 10, and the question of whether the saddest break-up in modern cinema makes the grade.

Star Wars: Attack of the Clones (2002) | The Cutting Room
30 september 2022 · 51 min
I don't like sand. It's coarse and rough and irritating. As romantic dialogue goes, it has not aged like fine wine. But there's more to Attack of the Clones (2002) than its most mocked line. Lees meer
George Lucas shot almost the whole thing on digital greenscreen, making it one of the first major films to abandon celluloid, and served up Christopher Lee, a clone army, and the sight of a tiny Yoda finally igniting a lightsaber. John, Westy and Matt take on the prequel's highs and its sandier lows, get to the effects and the writing, and rate it out of 10. Sand optional.

Saving Private Ryan (1998) | The Cutting Room
29 september 2022 · 50 min
The first twenty-four minutes are still the most harrowing depiction of combat ever filmed. Veterans walked out of cinemas in 1998, not in protest, but because Steven Spielberg had marched them straight back onto Omaha Beach. Lees meer
Tom Hanks leads a squad sent behind enemy lines to bring one man home, with Matt Damon as the man in question, kept apart from the cast's brutal boot camp on purpose so the resentment would feel real. John, Westy and Matt break down the direction, the writing and the unforgettable set pieces, then settle on three scores out of 10. It lost Best Picture to Shakespeare in Love, by the way. They may have thoughts.

Se7en (1995) | The Cutting Room
22 september 2022 · 53 min
What's in the box? The studio never wanted you to find out. They pushed hard for a softer ending, and it took David Fincher and a stubborn Brad Pitt to protect the one that makes Se7en (1995) unforgettable. Lees meer
Pitt, Morgan Freeman and a sweltering, rain-soaked city chase a killer working methodically through the seven deadly sins. Luke, Westy and Matt pull apart Fincher's grimy vision, the writing, the dread and that finale, before scoring it out of 10. Some boxes are better left shut.

The Long Good Friday (1980) | The Cutting Room
26 augustus 2022 · 48 min
Before he was James Bond, Pierce Brosnan made his film debut here without a word of dialogue, as an IRA hitman. Before she was a Dame, Helen Mirren was the gangster's moll. And in the lead, Bob Hoskins gave the performance that made him. Lees meer
The Long Good Friday (1980) is one of the great British gangster films, a London crime saga that nearly got carved up and dumped onto television before anyone realised what they had. Luke, Westy and Matt work through the direction, the writing and Hoskins's astonishing wordless final shot, then score it out of 10. They don't make them like this any more.

The Dark Knight (2008) | The Cutting Room
19 augustus 2022 · 51 min
Heath Ledger shut himself in a hotel room for weeks, kept a diary in the Joker's voice, and built a performance so complete he won an Oscar he never saw, having died before the film reached cinemas. Lees meer
The Dark Knight (2008) is Christopher Nolan's crime epic in a cape, the one that hauled the comic-book film somewhere darker and more serious, shot huge stretches in IMAX, and flipped a lorry clean over down a Chicago street for real. John, Westy and Matt dig into Nolan's direction, the writing, Ledger's Joker and the spectacle, then hand over three scores out of 10. Why so serious?

Psycho (1960) | The Cutting Room
5 augustus 2022 · 43 min
Forty-seven minutes in, Alfred Hitchcock murders his leading lady in a shower and changes cinema forever. Audiences in 1960 had seen nothing like it, helped by Hitchcock quietly buying up copies of the novel to keep the twist secret. Lees meer
Psycho (1960) was shot fast and cheap in black and white with his television crew, scored with those shrieking strings, and sold on a marketing campaign as devious as the film itself. John, Westy and Matt take on Hitchcock's direction, the shower scene (78 setups, not a single stab actually shown) and the legacy, then score it out of 10. Best you don't run a bath after.

Airplane! (1980) | The Cutting Room
13 juli 2022 · 52 min
The masterstroke was casting deadly serious, square-jawed dramatic actors, Leslie Nielsen, Robert Stack, Peter Graves, and having them deliver the silliest jokes ever written with total sincerity. It rebuilt Nielsen's entire career. Lees meer
Airplane! (1980) was lifted almost line for line from a forgotten 1950s disaster movie, then crammed with so many gags per minute you miss half of them laughing at the rest. Luke, Westy and Matt trace how the Zucker-Abrams-Zucker team assembled it, the writing, the highlights and the legacy, then rate it out of 10. And don't call them Shirley.

The Blair Witch Project (1999) | The Cutting Room
24 juni 2022 · 49 min
Plenty of people left cinemas in 1999 genuinely believing they'd just watched three real students die. A fake documentary, a clever website and an IMDb page listing the actors as missing, presumed dead, had done the job. Lees meer
The Blair Witch Project cost around sixty thousand dollars and took nearly a quarter of a billion, more or less inventing modern found-footage horror in the process. The cast were barely fed, barely briefed and genuinely terrified, and it shows. Luke, Westy and Matt unpick the filmmaking, the marketing masterclass and the scares, then score it out of 10. Nobody mention the corner.

Star Wars: The Phantom Menace (1999) | The Cutting Room
23 juni 2022 · 1 uur 3 min
No film in history arrived under heavier expectation. Sixteen years after Return of the Jedi, people queued round the block and bought tickets just to watch the trailer. Then the lights went down, and... well. You know. Lees meer
George Lucas brought Star Wars back with Liam Neeson, Ewan McGregor and Natalie Portman, a wall of fresh CGI, a pod race, the finest lightsaber duel in the whole saga, and one Gungan who started a thousand arguments. John, Westy and Matt take on the prequel everyone has a take on, weigh the good against the Jar Jar, and deliver three scores out of 10. Phantom menace, or phantom classic?

Boogie Nights (1997) | Ep. 17 - Part 2

Paul Thomas Anderson was twenty-six, on his second film, and somehow directing a cast of this size like a veteran. Luke, Westy, and Matt begin the story of his breakout. Lees meer
In Part 1 we cover the film's opening, director Paul Thomas Anderson, the cast, and the second act — including Mark Wahlberg's career-redefining turn, the huge ensemble, and the long tracking shots that announced a major talent.

The Empire Strikes Back (1980) | Ep. 16 - Part 2
15 april 2022 · 59 min
Lucas funded the film almost entirely himself to keep control, gambling everything on the sequel. It paid off spectacularly. John, Westy, and Matt continue the story, up to that line in Cloud City. Lees meer
We dig into the crew behind the film — the screenplay with Leigh Brackett and Lawrence Kasdan, John Williams's score and the Imperial March, and the advances in creature and effects work — before breaking down the finale, the reception, and why it's so often called the greatest sequel ever made. Plus the hosts' final verdict and scores.
Part 1 is the war on the ice and the road to Dagobah — Kershner, the cast, the first half. Start there.

In Part 1 we cover the film's opening, director Irvin Kershner, the cast, and the second act — including the battle on Hoth, Luke's training with Yoda on Dagobah, and the famously troubled, over-budget production.

Ti West drops a 1970s adult-film crew at a remote Texas farmhouse, then lets it all curdle, and he secretly shot an entire prequel back to back with it on the same set. John, Westy and Matt size up West's direction, the Texas Chain Saw homage, the performances and the kills, then score it out of 10.

Part 1 is the set-up — the Coens, the cast, Jerry digging his hole. Start there.

The Batman (2022) | The Cutting Room
6 maart 2022 · 1 uur 2 min
When Robert Pattinson was announced as Batman, a corner of the internet lost the plot. Then the film landed, and the brooding, eyeliner-smudged detective at its centre quietly won most of them over. Lees meer
The Batman (2022) is Matt Reeves's three-hour noir, less caped blockbuster than rain-soaked crime thriller, with Paul Dano's Zodiac-inspired Riddler, a Nirvana needle-drop, and Colin Farrell buried so deep in prosthetics as the Penguin you'd never place him. John, Westy and Matt talk through the direction, the writing, the detective spin on the character and the rest, then deliver three scores out of 10. Vengeance, scored out of ten.
