    LAMBCAST #209 MOTM PITCH PERFECT

    Last month the MOTM champion was The Wild Bunch, a testosterone fuelled, bloody classic western. This month you’d find it difficult to find a film more different, as we sat down to discuss the 2012 female-driven a capella romantic comedy, Pitch Perfect.

    Host Jay Cluitt was joined by first time MOTM champion Matt Stewart along with DJ Valentine, Jess Manzo and Bubbawheat to discuss their aca-feeling about the movie, before...

It’s also a popular...

    LAMBCAST #208 ASK THE LAMB #4

    The internet is full of desperate people with pressing, important questions about the world of film, and the LAMB is just as full of knowledgeable movie-buffs willing to provide intelligent and insightful answers to those problems.

    Foreign Chops #20: France

    Robert back again for another edition of Foreign Chops. This has to be one of the biggest turn outs for Foreign Chops yet.

Check out all the great film writing and hang in there for another Foreign Chops subject coming real soon.
