Today we talk about both a film that Kev hasn’t seen that IS on the list and strangely a film Kev hasn’t seen that’s NOT on the list. Are they the same film…no! Andy admits he’s not really looking forward to watching the film, Kev welcomes him to his world. We ask out of such a stellar cast, who has had the best career and just how blind can love be, the answer to the first question being easier than the second! It's time for sunshine, Italy and locking The Visitor in the basement of the shop along with other bad memories , as we watch #28 on the list, The Talented Mr Ripley.Quote: "I always thought it'd be better to be a fake somebody than a real nobody"IMDB: https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0134119@longplayvideolongplay.video

This week Andy starts the pod with a bold, verging on ridiculous claim on Hollywood stardom and Tom Cruise’s career. We try and remember what we’ve already spoken about in previous podcasts, an impossible task for Kev and talk about all the 3D DVDs we have in the shop that no one takes out anymore. The second half gets a bit repetitive but we’ll blame the movie as we watch number 29 on the list, Edge of Tomorrow.Quote: "Hey mate, i think there is something wrong with your suit...There's a dead guy in it"IMDB: https://www.imdb.com/title/tt1631867/@longplayvideolongplay.video
