Dune (1984)
The second viewing for both of us after several years, and to be honest we are still not fond of it. Come and listen to Daniel and Andrew try to pull apart both a messy production and a messy film. 54 mins

The Bridge on the River Kwai
Todays review is on the critically acclaimed The Bridge on the River Kwai; a 1957 adventure war film that focuses nicely on the individual rather than the overall war. With a fantastic cast, crew, location, and story it is hard to find the faults in a film of this calibre. 43mins

The Core
Don’t get me wrong, this movie isn’t very good but from it came one very good outcome, The Science and Entertainment Exchange. This is a board designed to foster collaborations between scientists and the entertainment industry and although the core wasn’t solely responsible for it’s creation, it is one the main culprits.
