Welcome to Never Seen The Godfather with Lorna and Sarah! Each week we dive into a popular film with someone who has never seen it and someone who loves it, and we discuss it. Are these films worth the hype? What have we been missing?

You boy! What day is it? Why, it's the belated return of Never Seen the Godfather, of course! Join Sarah and Lorna as they discover the joy and staying power of Frank Capra's It's A Wonderful Life (1946). Listen as they realise what proportion of the film is made up of the backstory, try to figure out the business operations in the town, and explore the harrowing fate of a woman working in a library wearing glasses. They cosy up to the holiday season realising that there are more important things in life than money, though it does help when the town saves you from going down for embezzlement.

WARNING: This podcast contains NO MUPPET EXPERTS

God bless us, every one! It's the Christmas Special, here to warm up drafty houses (though it's even worse for mouses). This week the girls are discovering their love of 1992's The Muppet Christmas Carol and appreciating Muppet star power for the first time. It's a Dickens story with music, Muppets, and more humans than you would expect. Join us as we go through the beats of a familiar story, lyrics that make us laugh, clever character quirks, the scenes that had Sarah crying, and Lorna's real feelings about Tiny Tim. Happy Christmas and New Year to our listeners, we love you to pieces (even more so to those meeces)

Hope you all get coal this Christmas (complimentary) xxx

Welcome to Never Seen The Godfather with Lorna and Sarah! Each week we dive into a popular film with someone who has never seen it and someone who loves it, and we discuss it. Are these films worth the hype? What have we been missing?

This week the girls are going straight from horror to horrified! Staying in what is fast becoming their favourite year (1996), Sarah shows Lorna all the gory intrigue of Primal Fear. This film's double twist leaves much to be discussed, though we do try to find time to figure out what these other plots are about and we do not succeed. It's two hours of great performances, overt musical cues, American legal jargon and some goddamn Catholic representation. Sarah marvels at Richard Gere's second best performance as an arrogant lawyer in Chicago and Lorna worries if Roy is going to get her.
