Mother's not quite herself today… but we are. John, Matt, and Westy check into the Bates Motel to begin the story of Hitchcock's 1960 masterpiece — the film that reinvented horror, traumatised a generation of shower-takers, and proved you really can kill your leading lady 47 minutes in.In Part 1 we cover the film's opening, the Master of Suspense himself mortgaging his house to make it happen, the cast, and the second act. Expect chocolate syrup, screeching violins, big opinions, and big laughs.Part 2, covering the crew, the finale, reception, and the film's lasting legacy, is available now.

Ever wonder how a single film can capture a cultural moment or redefine an entire genre? That’s the territory explored in All The Right Movies. Hosted by four creatives-John, Luke, Westy, and Matt-this podcast is built on a shared fascination with the mechanics and magic of cinema. Each episode focuses on one significant production, peeling back the curtain to examine the creative decisions, technical artistry, and historical context that make it matter. The conversation is less about giving a simple thumbs-up or thumbs-down and more about understanding the how and why. You’ll hear them dissect everything from the nuanced performances and directorial vision to the practical effects and screenplay choices, asking whether the film’s ambitions ultimately work on screen. Their scope is broad, moving from golden age treasures to contemporary classics, ensuring that every discussion reveals a new layer of appreciation. The tone is insightful and naturally entertaining, driven by a genuine passion for the craft. Listening to this podcast feels like joining a thoughtful, well-informed debate among friends who love movies just as much as you do. It’s for anyone who has ever watched a film and wanted to dive deeper into the story behind the story, appreciating not just what happened on screen, but all the effort and artistry that made it possible.
