Welcome to the home of forgotten films. Each week, Joe Devine & Adam Richmond discuss a different film that they’ve seen before, but forgotten existed. They discuss cinema, memory, culture and history – as well as play silly games about cheese, budgets, and re-casting.
Listeners needn’t have seen the film, but are welcome to watch (or re-watch) before episodes for a different perspective. And at the end of each show, Adam & Joe read out forgotten film lists to each other, to find the film that becomes the focus for next week’s episode.

48: Layer Cake
Jun 11, 2024
Show notes
Joe & Adam plunder through Matthew Vaughn's 2004 British gangster film Layer Cake, starring Daniel Craig, Sienna Miller, Michael Gambon and many, many more recognisable faces. Topics of conversation include: what even is a layer cake? Which version of Star Trek has Colm Meaney actually been in? Why is Sienna Miller so underrated? And why Adam thinks this isn't anything like a Guy Richie movie (and then later compares it loads to Guy Richie movies). Plus, bonus feeling uncomfortable in boundary-pushing clothes and embarrassing oneself while public speaking stories. We need your Movies You Forgot You Forgot!

May 28, 2024
Show notes
Joe & Adam ponder the shuffling undead with the scrabbling chasing hungrily raging Zeds, the reshot third act, and why this flick goes down so smooth but is eminently forgettable. Then they get into a right old ding dong about Bradley Pitts vs Gorgeous Clooney – who’s bigger now? who’s better overall.
