Notorious - "It Has Been A Perfectly Hideous Party"

Author: Moves To Watch Before The End Of The World June 5, 2024 Duration: 51:52
Nadeem had to pick a movie that starts with ”N”, so he went all the way back to 1946 and dug out Alfred Hitchcock’s ”Notorious” for the next movie review. Mita loves an action movie. Nadeem does not.

Imagine two friends, faced with the looming apocalypse, who decide their final act won't be panic, but a projector's glow. That's the premise behind Movies to Watch Before the End of the World. Each episode finds these film buffs debating, dissecting, and sometimes despairing over the titles that make their ultimate cinematic bucket list. You'll hear passionate discussions that go deeper than simple reviews, exploring why certain films feel essential as the clock ticks down. Is it for comfort, for spectacle, or for a final lesson in what it means to be human? The conversation is grounded in a genuine love for cinema, spanning all genres and eras. And yes, thanks to their friend Mita, there's also a reliably entertaining dose of celebrity gossip woven into the mix, because what's the end of the world without a little Hollywood drama? It's a podcast that manages to find both humor and heart in a hypothetical catastrophe, all through the shared language of movies. Tune in to hear their curated selections and the lively, often tangential, chats they inspire. You might just find yourself building your own last-minute watchlist along the way.
