#35 - "See it less as an eye-gouging, more part of a grand tradition" - Censor

Join us this week as we discuss the new British horror film 'Censor' from first-time director Prano Bailey-Bond.  Set during the 1980s 'video nasties' era, it stars Niamh Algar as a fastidious censor whose disturbed childhood starts to influence how she sees the films she is monitoring. As well as chatting about Tom Cruise having his car stolen during filming in Birmingham, we discuss the latest Marvel blockbuster 'The Suicide Squad' from James Gunn, Vittorio De Sica's classic neorealist drama 'Umberto D.' (1952), Geoff Murphy's post-apocalyptic sci-fi film 'The Quiet Earth' (1985), and the new comedy sequel 'People Just Do Nothing: Big in Japan'.
