Most film podcasts tell you what to watch. Cinema: A to B is more interested in why a film works or why it doesn't.
Alec Mallmann and Ben Starkey spent years working inside Hollywood before deciding the most useful thing they could do with that experience was talk honestly about cinema. Each episode breaks down the craft — cinematography, editing, performance — with the kind of insight you only get from people who've worked behind the curtain. No film degree required, minimal jargon, no scores out of ten.
New releases and revisited classics, covered biweekly. Expect spoilers.
Listener requests encouraged.

The first entry in a 5 episode mini "Season of Schwarzenegger" is a laughter filled look back at the sci-fi action film The Running Man starring Arnold Schwarzenegger and Richard Dawson and loosely adapted from the Stephen King novel. Alec and Ben discuss what still works, what doesn't, and why they still enjoy this big loud 80s Arnold flick.
