The Midnight Run
From two movie obsessed brothers comes the ultimate celebration of cinema and the largely pointless yet magnificent joy of making lists about it. Opinions, Top 10’s, random facts and anecdotes all drawn from the brains of men who can quote Raiders of the Lost Ark, Star Wars, Zulu, The Princess Bride and yes, Midnight Run from beginning to end. Tell your friends, tell people you are slightly indifferent to, tell people you actively despise and remember, there’s no such thing as a guilty pleasure.

Steven Spielberg. A master craftsman. Unsurprisingly we are big fans on this show and it has been a difficult task picking our top 10s from his current list of 33 feature films (yes, we are including Duel in that number). Which of his films resulted in the creation of a new classification in American cinemas and why did you not see the shark in Jaws until the second half of the film? A number of films have been watched in preparation for it, including a trip to the cinema for both of us. Also featured on the show are remarkably difficult topics such as our favourite scene, performance and musical theme. Two quizzes for Matt this time, just in case the first is too easy and who were we with when we were separately stopped by the police?
