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 have spent years making, studying, and obsessing over movies from the edges of the film industry. They bring that perspective to conversations about what happens on screen and behind it: the writing, cinematography, editing, performance, production, and all the choices that can make a movie soar or crash and burn.
No film degree required. Minimal jargon. No scores out of ten. Just two people who love movies trying to figure out what makes them work.
New releases and revisited classics, covered biweekly. Expect spoilers.
Listener requests encouraged.

Join Alec and Ben as they discuss Raiders of the Lost Ark, Temple of Doom, The Last Crusade and the much maligned Kingdom of the Crystal Skull. The guys detail why the fourth entry fell flat. Alec and Ben each explain the what and why of their respective favorite entries in the franchise. Listeners are encouraged to try a different method of viewing Raiders of the Lost Ark. The guys converse on what did and didn't work in Temple of Doom. Ben discusses what makes Last Crusade such a unique entry in the series. Come along as the guys have a fun laughter filled conversation on this beloved saga starring the legendary Harrison Ford.
