Celluloid Chronicles: A Historical Movie Podcast
Long-time besties, and history and film enthusiasts, Brick and Birdy bring you tantalizing facts and inaccuracy drama as they explore a new period film each episode. Listen in as they discuss, and sometimes rage, about the making of the film, the history the film is set against, and all other relevant, and maybe not so relevant, matters as they see fit. You could almost say, they’ll be in their period.

Episode 5: The Others
Brick and Birdy take a spooky left turn in this captivating deep dive into the history surrounding 2001's The Others starring Nichole Kidman, Fionnula Flannagan, and Christopher Eccleston. They discuss the German occupation of the Channel Islands, pale children, ghosts, otherworlds, Catholicism, Seances, and so much more in this intensely lovely gothic film.
