On this INAUGURAL episode of CINEMA SMORGASBORD SELLS OUT we’re getting mainstream as HELL as we dig into the most zeitgeisty film of 2023, Greta Gerwig’s colorful box office smash BARBIE! No more obscure Filipino exploitation movies or Jodorowsky rarities, we’re talking about something everyone has seen for once and – damn it – we’re gonna enjoy it. We touch on our personal history with Barbie dolls (and Barbie media), whether Barbie works as a children’s film, how we get enjoyment out of films that anger the “right” people and SO MUCH MORE. Listen, friends!

New year, new episode of FURTHER REEDING, a podcast all about the life and career of actor Oliver Reed! On this episode we’re joining Reed and all his seaside buddies as they take in (and take out) the tourist trade in 1964’s THE SYSTEM (also known by the confusingly titled THE GIRL-GETTERS in the US). Directed by regular Reed collaborator (and notorious scumbag) Michael Winner, it’s a fascinatingly layered drama with a star making performance from Reed in the lead. BUT IS IT ANY GOOD? Listen and find out!
