  • Fascism On Film - Episode 15 - The Stranger
    2026/07/06
    Welcome to the fifteenth episode of our ongoing series: Fascism On Film. Each episode of this series, the Holmes Brothers look and review a film that has to do with fascism. During the episodes, the brothers look and see how the aspects and portrayal of fascism shown in the film relate to current and/or past events.On this Fascism on Film episode, the Holmes Brothers along with friend of the podcast Richard Bruno sit down to discuss Orson Welles's The Stranger. Released in 1946, it stars Orson Welles, Edward G. Robinson and Loretta Young. The Stranger is a film noir thriller set in a small town in Connecticut. This was Welles's third film as a director and his first film noir picture. After the making of The Magnificent Ambersons, Orson Welles took on the job of directing this film to show he could make a film under budget and under schedule. And more importantly, a successful film. His last two films, Citizen Kane and The Magnificent Ambersons, were not successful at the box office. The Stranger stars Robinson as Agent Wilson, a war crimes investigator for the United Nations, is on the hunt for a Nazi war criminal hiding in plain sight under a new identity. The man he is after is Franz Kindler who goes by the name Charles Rankin and is a professor at the local college. Rankin/Kindler is also about to get married to Mary Longstreet, daughter of Supreme Court Justice Adam Longstreet. They are played by Loretta Young and Philip Merivale. With nothing to go on except Kindler's passion for clocks, Wilson releases Konrad Meinike (Konstantin Shayne) at the hopes he will lead him to Rankin.

  • Fascism On Film - Episode 14 - To Be Or Not To Be
    2026/06/28
    Welcome to the fourteenth episode of our ongoing series: Fascism On Film. Each episode of this series, the Holmes Brothers look and review a film that has to do with fascism. During the episodes, the brothers look and see how the aspects and portrayal of fascism shown in the film relate to current and/or past events.On this Fascism on Film episode, the Holmes Brothers along with author and friend of the podcast Chris Geier discuss To Be Or Not To Be, a black comedy set in Nazi Occupied Poland directed by Ernst Lubitsch. A troupe of actors living in war torn Warsaw get caught up in an espionage plot. Robert Stack who plays Lt. Stanislav Sobinski, a Polish airman, suspects that Professor Alexander Siletsky is a Nazi spy pretending to be a Polish Resistance worker. Upon returning to Warsaw, Sobinski reunites with Maria Tura (Carole Lombard, in what sadly became her final onscreen role) a famous Polish actress that he is smitten with and her husband Joseph who is also an actor. Joseph and his talented group of actors put on a scheme to trick Siletsky and the Nazis. Hopefully it all goes to plan and they get out of Poland. You'll have to watch the film and see. Chris is a former journalist and an author. His novella Silt is available to purchase and read. It can be found on his publisher's website Alternating Current Press. The plot of Silt is: "Cincinnati, 1856. German immigrant Werner Bosenbach has a part-time job collecting shady debts and a full-time drinking habit. When he is hired by a wealthy widow to hunt down those responsible for her husband’s death, Werner is drawn deep into a city bursting with corruption, nativism, and long-simmering racial tension. From violent dock workers and crooked marshals, to operators of the underground railroad and the slave hunters they oppose, Werner must navigate the dangers and divisions of his adopted home to find some answers and, with any luck, some lager." Fans of Raymond Chandler, Dashiell Hammett and Cormac McCarthy should check it out.We hope you enjoy this episode and stay tuned for more episodes of this Fascism On Film series.Be sure to check out our Monument Valley Film on our YouTube Channel.Anders's screenwriter work can also be seen at work in the horror, car chase thriller Delivery Run, co-written with & directed by Joey Palmroos.

  • The Movies And Me - Episode 8 - Callum Burn (II)
    2026/06/12
    Welcome to the eighth episode of The Movies And Me, a podcast project of ours where in each of these episodes we sit down with a filmmaker, writer, someone who works in the film industry or just someone who is a big cinephile who just lives for movies. We talk about their creative projects and also discuss their four favourite films that have inspired them to go out and have a career in film. Or four films that have least inspired them to seek out the career they have today.On this episode, we welcome back Anders's old Met Film School friend Callum Burn to the podcast. On the first episode of The Movies And Me series, we talked with Callum about his film Battle Over Britain, a Second World War film. Now, Callum is here to talk about his new film: Landship set during the First World War. The film is having it's premiere at the Raindance Film Festival on the 20th June and it will be released in select cinemas on June 26th. Following that, it will be released on DVD, Blu-Ray and several streaming services to the territories the film has already been sold to. Produced through his production company Tin Hat Productions, Landship is set during the Battle of Passchendaele in 1917. Brief synopsis from their website: "At the spear head of a British offensive, the nine-man crew of Battle Tank F41 'Fray Bentos' become bogged down in a shell crater in no-man's-land, just yards from the German front line. Over the course of sixty gruelling hours, Officer Commanding, Captain Donald Richardson, struggles to maintain discipline, as he and his crew come under repeated attack from an insidious enemy that appear from nowhere out of the dense smog that hangs across the battlefield." Along with discussing the project, we discuss with Callum the kinds of films that inspired and helped shape the project. We enjoyed this chat with Callum and we look forward to seeing the film. And hope you do as well!Follow Callum and Tin Hat Productions on their Instagram page. Plus their channel on YouTube.
