This whole meeting takes place LIVE within the plush confines of the South Bank’s BFI! This is the second live Films To Be Buried With so far, and it’s a smash for real, as Lolly is a true treat and a really great time! There’s a lot of ground covered in this action packed episode, including how she SINGLE HANDEDLY broke Tom Cruise’s ankle (well, I mean, kind of), her upcoming series ‘Shrill’ (aka DJ Shrill-Ex) and her imminent super-stardom as a result of it, how her attention span for films has been impinged upon through television, the regrets of actors, spitty kisses and ever so much more! What a goodie. One thing to remember before going in - the safeword is ‘Neeson’. You may need it.

LOOK OUT! It’s only Films To Be Buried With! Join your host Brett Goldstein as he and his guest go deep into the subject of mortality via cinema, and this week he is joined by author, film critic royalty and Wittertainment champ MARK KERMODE!“…All the best stuff I’ve seen tends to have been stuff I’ve known nothing about until it starts…”This is the one you’ve been waiting for, ladies and gentlemen - a proper sit down with Mark, this time joined NOT by Simon Mayo, but by Brett Goldstein! This is Films To Be Buried With perfection, as anyone with even a passing interest in cinema has surely fallen in love with Mark’s podcasts and books, and it’s such a great chance to hear him talk at length about those favourites of his along with a healthy dose of sprinkled in gems and treasures from his life in film criticism. From being a fan of cold water swimming (I hope Mark is familiar with Wim Hof, that’s a team up waiting to happen), to The Exorcist (a lifelong obsession), to crying in cinemas, to meeting his wife aka “the good lady professor her indoors”, to the fetishistic act of loading a film onto a projector, to old cinemas, and ultimate salvation through film. This is everything you expected and more - you’ll love it, so settle in and enjoy - and get ready to take some notes too, you’ll definitely have a few recommendations lined up after this one…(PS Hello to Jason Isaacs)EPISODE LINKS:• MARK on TWITTER!• KERMODE & MAYO FILM REVIEWS!• KERMODE ON FILM podcast!• MARK's LATEST BOOK 'How Does It Feel'!• BRETT GOLDSTEIN on TWITTER!• BRETT on INSTAGRAM!• BRETT on PATREON!• 'SUPERBOB' - Brett's 2015 feature film!• 'CORNERBOYS' with BRETT & SCROOBIUS PIP!• DISTRACTION PIECES NETWORK on FACEBOOK• DISTRACTION PIECES NETWORK on INSTAGRAMSupport this show http://supporter.acast.com/filmstobeburiedwith.

LOOK OUT! It’s only Films To Be Buried With! Join your host Brett Goldstein as he and his guest go deep into the subject of mortality via cinema, and this week he is joined by the wonderfully great comedian (sketch, standup, all sides), actor and podcaster CAMILLE UCAN!If you don’t already know Camille, prepare to make your newest friend by the end of this as she is a true diamond guest! You may have made her acquaintance as part of sketch comedy crew ‘The Birthday Girls’, alongside Beattie Edmonson and Rose Johnson, or perhaps you’ve seen her in Lee & Dean (among tons of other appearances), but here’s a perfect chance to hear her film picks and get deep into the existential madness that is life itself. Amidst the good times you will get to hear about Camille’s death anxieties (which are triggered by films, making her the true perfect guest on this podcast!), her times staying with Brett up in Edinburgh during Fringe times, her tolerance to horror which she does not share with her husband by any means, whether her singing is up to par with Brett’s movement (including a Curb Your Enthusiasm-worthy audition story) and how she doesn’t watch films twice. There is so much more besides of course, and you will enjoy the hell out of this one.

LOOK OUT! It’s only Films To Be Buried With! Join your host Brett Goldstein as he and his guest go deep into the subject of mortality via cinema, and this week he is joined by the wonderful comedian FUNMBI OMOTAYO!“Comedy is my calling - what I do with my comedy is the purpose…”A really enjoyable and uplifting episode with the radiant Funmbi, who is pretty much universally regarded as an all round nice guy - and this episode should only serve as evidence of this! However, as we hear, the nice guy image can be tough to break out of, especially in the world of standup. He and Brett get deep into this of course, but you can expect some full on entertaining film chatter as well as comedy nuggets and gems, including Funmbi’s beginnings in comedy and developing his comedic chops for all kinds of rooms and environments, living in Nigeria at an early age and being involved in film clubs which, at that time, was all about VHS tapes, how one must commit to one’s VHS renting choice whereas in streaming you can jump around, attending drama school in Canada, not being into horror and opting more for the superhero side of things, relatable bad guys and SO MUCH MORE! It’s proper jam packed, and Funmbi’s led a crazy interesting life so you’ll definitely get down with this one, ladies and gentlemen.

LOOK OUT! It’s only Films To Be Buried With! Join your host Brett Goldstein as he and his guest go deep into the subject of mortality via cinema, and this week he is joined by comedian, podcaster and presenter JOHN ROBINS!Lots of good times to be had with Brett and John, which is all right here for your listening enjoyment! John is well into his films, so much so he has a long list of Kermode’s recommendations at hand (a wise move - maybe throw some suggestions at him yourself why not!) and has a fine history of film watching as you will hear. So as the two approach a good amount of conversational bits and pieces including the locked grooves of being a film critic, the many problems of HD and the effect it has on the feel of a film, to him being a very solutions oriented fellow, to all kinds of tangents besides, you’ll have a great old time in the company of John Robins - enjoy! Oh, and when you hear a sound almost like an old phonograph record or a roasting chicken, it’s just John vaping. We didn’t add extra foley effects.

LOOK OUT! It’s only Films To Be Buried With! Join your host Brett Goldstein as he and his guest go deep into the subject of mortality via cinema, and this week he is joined by national treasure, actor, comedian, writer, presenter, model and activist JAMEELA JAMIL!“You’re giving people a timeout from their lives, and sucking them into fantasy, and that’s so noble to me…”An incredible chat session with Brett and Jameela, and definitely one which really displays the essence of what Films To Be Buried With is all about. Life, death, cinema. And who better to talk about such subjects as an actor on a show about the afterlife! From her humble beginnings back in the days working in a video shop (complete with a well stocked ice-cream fridge), to presenting a music show on Channel 4 to then getting into comedy, and now full on acting in ‘The Good Place’ and more, she’s also become a very powerful voice in the world of activism with her amazing positive campaigning against the weird world of celebrity diets, fat-shaming and many other vile elements in mass media. Basically Jameela is a superhero living among us. So let us celebrate her, as we hear about her show The Good Place and being on the cusp of series 4, Ted Danson, the costs of activism and balancing the benefits, how it seems the world has been listening to her since she lost weight, karma, the afterlife, ET-based grief therapy and what Macaulay Culkin has to answer for in her fear of bees (and what scrapes said fear has gotten her into).

LOOK OUT! It’s only Films To Be Buried With! Join your host Brett Goldstein as he and his guest go deep into the subject of mortality via cinema, and this week he is joined by director, producer, screenwriter and show runner BILL LAWRENCE!“Everything goes my way…”A truly enjoyable chat with Bill, who - as you’ll hear - is responsible a great chunk of amazing US television from the past few decades. From Spin City to Scrubs, Clone High to Cougar Town and his newest creation Whiskey Cavalier, you’ll find Bill’s name in there proud and centre. As ever, the sit down convo enjoys many a tangent, ranging from some ‘inside baseball’ details, Brett’s casting in a Bill creation pilot a while back, the character board and the dynamics of a cast, his additional work as puncher up of scripts, the deep connection between him and his father, the old chestnut of separating art from the artist and whether we can do that these days (often, no), the two sources of comedy, the duality of his parents backgrounds, the occasionally manipulative nature of Scrubs and a whole lot more. Brilliant stuff, a bubbly and enjoyable gem of an episode!

LOOK OUT! It’s only Films To Be Buried With! Join your host Brett Goldstein as he and his guest go deep into the subject of mortality via cinema, and this week he is joined by actor, writer, director (and co-creator of Netflix’s Russian Doll) - it’s LESLYE HEADLAND!"Gotta get up, gotta get out, gotta get home before the moooooorning comes…"So did you do your homework as set for you last week, hmmm? You had ONE JOB! As easy one, if you have a Netflix subscription - yes that one job was to watch Russian Doll, so hopefully that was an achievable task and was taken care of! If so, you will have of course become a fast fan, and you will thoroughly enjoy Brett and Leslye going right into it - a proper treasure trove of trivia for you, going into the logistics, casting, music (yes THAT song), the whole deal. It’s fascinating even if you haven’t seen it though - you’ll get a kick out of it for sure! On top of that, the two go in on how Leslye is open to her creations being interpreted however they may (unless it’s wrong), her dreams of directing a Bond movie, toxic femininity, being put in her feelings by one film in particular, how she loves musicals (apart from one - you’ll hear), how key moments in her life seemed to be centred around film, sexy vs sexist, her early films and her family’s new year’s film traditions! ALSO - treat yourself to the Patreon only moments for this week only, as Brett loved them so much he decided to give you a taste for free…LINKS FOR THIS EPISODE:• LESLYE on TWITTER!• RUSSIAN DOLL on NETFLIX!• LESLYE on IMDB!• RUSSIAN DOLL on TWITTER!• BRETT GOLDSTEIN on TWITTER!• BRETT GOLDSTEIN on INSTAGRAM!• BRETT GOLDSTEIN on PATREON!• 'SUPERBOB' - Brett's 2015 feature film!• 'CORNERBOYS' with BRETT & SCROOBIUS PIP!• DISTRACTION PIECES NETWORK on FACEBOOK• DISTRACTION PIECES NETWORK on INSTAGRAMSupport this show http://supporter.acast.com/filmstobeburiedwith.

LOOK OUT! It’s only Films To Be Buried With! Join your host Brett Goldstein as he and his guest go deep into the subject of mortality via cinema, and this week he is joined by the celebrated Empire Magazine writer CHRIS HEWITT!A surprisingly mischievous episode at that, my my… All fun and games though, as Brett and Chris get down and dirty and give you the goods on all angles of cinema and film criticism, including his way to the magazine itself, his exceedingly accurate review of Brett’s film Superbob, how the whole film industry should take a year off so we can all catch up, his awfully embarrassing made-up death scenario, his early days of film-making (described in about as high a level of self-deprecation as you can get), his emotional uncorking after some very personal and close death experiences, and how his partner does not share his love of horror films by any means. Such an enjoyable one this, so please, have fun getting to know Chris!(NOTE! Hereditary spoiler at around 41 minutes or so...

LOOK OUT! It’s only Films To Be Buried With! Join your host Brett Goldstein as he and his guest go deep into the subject of mortality via cinema, and this week he is joined by the awesome comedian and writer ATHENA KUGBLENU!Surely one of the most hardcore Films To Be Buried With guests at that, as Athena is mere days after giving birth - that’s some solid dedication to the craft of podcasting right there! And we are blessed by her golden presence, as Brett sets things off proper from the get go, which provides us with gem after gem including her brand new motherhood role, attending the cinema with her then unborn baby and working out what it responded to, how she enjoys her horror movies with a cup of sweet tea at the end (that’s actually a perfect combo) and SO much more… How much more? Well, the question “What in the world happened to Billy Zane?” gets posed, and also Athena makes Brett very angry - why, you may ask? Oh… You’ll find out… While films get spoiled all over the shop in the podcast, this writeup is a spoiler-free zone, people.
