AT THE MOVIES WITH CHARLOTTE AND BRON is a playful celebration of Australian cinema through a feminist, queer, POC lens. Bron is an arts producer, so she knows a lot about site specific cross-disciplinary emerging and immersive experiential performance in large scale festival contexts - but nothing about Liam Hemsworth. Charlotte is an actress who once played Girl At Party Hitting On Liam Hemsworth but gets nervous at real parties that someone will find out that she’s never seen Citizen Kane. Best friends for over a decade, Charlotte and Bron now run film company TOUGH CROWD, and want to learn everything there is to know about Australian cinema.

This episode welcomes our first guest to the pod: actor, dad, and Australian film enthusiast Alfred Nicdao! Together he and our hosts discuss the indie masterpiece TWO HANDS (1999) which would've been the film to put our Heath Ledger on the map if it weren't for that other film that he filmed the same year (10 THINGS I HATE ABOUT YOU). We swoon over Heath, Rose Byrne and of course our favourite bad boy Bryan Brown.Tough Crowd acknowledges the Wurundjeri Woi Wurrung people where this podcast is created. Hosted on Acast.
