#50 - Films turning 50 this year

Creaky Chair Film Podcast - A podcast by Creaky Chair

Categories:

We are delighted to reached our 50th episode! To mark this occasion, we are talking all about our favourite films that are celebrating their half-centenary this year - so our pick from an amazing year of cinema, 1972. From the hard science-fiction of Andrei Tarkovsky's 'Solaris' and Douglas Trumbull's 'Silent Running', to the epic majesty of Werner Herzog's 'Aguirre - Wrath of God' and the metaphor-rich sequel 'Conquest of the Planet of the Apes'. We cover Bruce Lee and Chuck Norris and their spectacular battle in 'The Way of the Dragon', Luis Bunuel's surrealist classic 'The Discreet Charm of the Bourgeoisie', one of Alfred Hitchcock's better late-career efforts 'Frenzy', a hidden gem of a western 'The Culpepper Cattle Co'., and the gloriously depraved 'Pink Flamingos' from Divine and John Waters. Join us for over an hour packed with chat about films to revisit and watch for the first time on this, their 50th anniversary.
