SNOBBIES! This is a new topic for the history books! We are going through the Sigh and Sound list of 100 greatest films of all time! We are picking from the Director list because the Critic list is just absolutely insane and not in a good way. This week we have CODY back! And we induct him into the hallowed halls of Films Snobs. Past Film Snobs include Ethan Jasso. Ricky Wickham. and current snobs. But now…Cody enters the ranks of Snobs and we couldn't be happier.

Having helped to establish one of the leading in-store stations in London’s Top Shop, he rose to lay the foundations of the mighty Smooth brand. In this hour of ‘Radio Moments – Conversations’, Steve Collins tells of growing up and the keen pirate radio influences which led him to answer a press ad leading to an enlightening journey to Tel Aviv - and then offers fascinating insight into life on-board the Voice of Peace.  Back on land, he walked into Top Shop and established a radio station proper, before Red Rose Radio eventually beckoned - where he was surprised to end up promptly presenting the breakfast show. When Capital offered a role, he hurried back to London where he spent 6 years on-air before moving across to County Sound, where life was not all he’d wished for. After Jazz and Chiltern, he arrived in a Manchester he instantly came to love, to play a part of the management team of Key and Gold and then crossed to start up Wish FM. Assuming control of programming Jazz in the North West, he worked within a challenging format to deliver, with huge success, the beginnings of the new Smooth brand, which he was then to manage across the UK. Steve speaks candidly about the influences he witnessed on how not to manage; the way it feels when the station you care for is taken over; how it feels to end up on the dole; and shares the things he feels he got right – and wrong in over 40 years in radio. In his own words, this is the Steve Collins story.

On today's show, we're rounding out the Sight and Sound Top 50 with Kenji Mizoguchi's ghost story, Ugetsu Monogatari ('53). Notable for both its stunning long takes and its condemnation of the oppressive patriarchal values of Feudal Japan, Ugetsu has become the quintessential Mizoguchi text. Flixwise co-producer, Martin Kessler, and Eclipse Viewer host, David Blakeslee, join Lady P to discuss why they think Ugetsu's haunting tale of the destructive power of masculine pride managed to surpass both Sansho the Bailiff and Life of Oharu to become the highest ranking Mizoguchi film on the Sight and Sound list. For the second topic, the gang talks cinema's greatest ghost stories. The panelist surmise that part of Ugetsu's enduring popularity is its supernatural element. That said, not all movie specters are as haunting as Machiko Kyo's Lady Wakasa. The panel talks about what kinds of ghosts make for effective cinematic renderings (and they try to figure out why movie ghosts have a thing for pottery). Then each panelists takes a turn talking about their personal favorite spirits from the great beyond.

On today's show, we're touring around the dystopic Paris of the future featured in Jacques Tati's 1967 film, PLAYTIME. Joining host, Lady P, and Flixwise co-producer, Martin Kessler, to talk Tati are two stalwarts of the classic film blogosphere: David Blakeslee of Criterion Reflections and The Eclipse Viewer podcast, and Aaron West of Criterion Blues and the Criterion Close-Up podcast. Together, the panel marvels at the immaculately constructed city that Tati had built from scratch, and they laugh recounting how Tati's famous Hulot character bumbles his way through this world, leaving a path of destroyed bourgeois nonsense in his wake. PLAYTIME is one of the very few comedies in the Sight and Sound Top 50 - it's sitting pretty (ie barely functional) at #43. But in typical critic fashion, Sight and Sound has awarded a comedy that also works as a pointed social satire. As audience members, we wonder why some of the laughs get stuck in our throats. Perhaps it's because some of those laughs are at our expense. Then, since we have two bonafide Criterion aficionados in the house, we thought we'd take this opportunity to talk about The Criterion Collection. Digital streaming services have become more and more convenient and ubiquitous in recent years. So why then do folks like David and Aaron continue not only to collect, but also write and podcast about Criterion. We discuss the enduring appeal of the Criterion brand, and whether or not physical media will continue to have a following in this increasingly cloud based world.
