Episode 107 - Owl Stretching Time: A Monty Python Movie Marathon
Manage episode 506535010 series 3676384
Welcome to 'Matinee to Midnight' - a podcast for big screen enthusiasts.
For episode 7, Simon and Matthew dispense with the usual 'matinee', 'prime time' and 'midnight' movie slots in favour of the Roundhay Garden cinema's first ever movie marathon. They will be screening (and discussing) all four Monty Python movies and some additional Python related movies in addition to considering the enduring legacy of the comedy troupe and the cultural impact made by each of its members outside of the group.
Let us know your thoughts on the Monty Python filmography, what Python related movies you would programme, and suggest topics for future episodes by emailing us at [email protected]

On this show, Simon and Matthew, the co-proprietors of the fictional 2-screen repertory cinema, 'The Roundhay Garden', will be discussing and recommending movies built around a particular topic.
The topic could be a genre, an actor, an actress, a director, a year in movie history or any other theme that comes to mind.
And they will each be choosing movies from the topic to programme at the cinema to fill the schedule - a 'Matinee' movie, a 'Prime Time' movie, and a 'Midnight Movie'.
This is a film recommendation show, but the movies Simon and Matthew choose to discuss are not necessarily their favourite films on a subject. They are the films that they feel are interesting and worthy of discussion - and best fit into these programming slots.
