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.

90: Shanghai Noon, Cowboy Nonsense and Jackie Chan’s charm
May 20, 2025
Show notes
This week we saddle up for the limp 2003 action buddy comedy Shanghai Noon. There’s East meets West, there’s the ever watchable Jackie Chan and hit-and-miss charmer Owen Wilson. There’s some buddy movie chat and every excuse is made to discuss anything but this dull dross. Plus: Joe gets waylaid by a call to the RSPB. Got a film you forgot you forgot?

May 06, 2025
Show notes
Greta Gerwig's modern masterpiece Little Women (2019) is on the agenda today, and Joe & Adam dive into the history of the books, the reimagining of the third of four edition (depending on who you ask), why Florence Pugh is so good, why the German professor is barely in the film and why there are still three bad things in this movie despite it being so great.
88: Captain Fantastic, Muddled Mourning and Never Going Back
Apr 29, 2025
Show notes
This week on Movies You Forgot You Forgot, Adam and Joe take a reluctant trip back to 2016’s Captain Fantastic. What was once a quirky indie now feels like a confusing manifesto on bad parenting and questionable life choices. They break down the film’s muddled philosophy on death, its oddball charm (or lack thereof), and why it brings the far superior Little Miss Sunshine to mind. Spoiler: some films are best left in the past. Got a film you forgot you forgot? Hit us up at moviesyouforgotyouforgot@gmail.com with your thoughts, episode suggestions, or just some light praise. You can also follow Adam @errorofways on Letterboxd; he rates and reviews the films he watches. The comments section is a very cool place to be.

Stuck in a bank for over two hours in Spike Lee’s 2006 heist/hostage ‘thriller’, starring Denzel Washington, Chiwetel Ejiofor, Jodie Foster and Christopher Plummer. Joe/Adam ponder the chilly nothingness of this plum forgot you forgot, and consider both Denzel’s greatness and why he hasn’t been in many great films. Plus, Joe’s homegrown Kevin Bacon game, alongside the classic Box Office game and the all-important Picking Next Week’s Film game. Got a film you forgot you forgot? Hit us up at moviesyouforgotyouforgot@gmail.com with your thoughts, episode suggestions, or just some light praise.
