Would we miss the opportunity to talk about Alicia Silverstone on the podcast? Ugh, as if!! We wrap up our miniseries, predicting future Oscar nominees by discussing the 90’s teen movie icon.
Alongside the unmissable Clueless (Amy Heckerling, 1995) we take in some of Alicia’s other noteworthy roles throughout the episode. From a mixed bag of 90s flicks with The Crush (Alan Shapiro, 1993), Batman & Robin (Joel Schumacher, 1997), Blast From The Past (Hugh Wilson, 1999) and more recent works like The Killing Of A Sacred Deer (Yorgos Lanthimos, 2017) and Reptile (Grant Singer, 2023).
It’s always a hoot to take in such an eclectic filmography and Alicia provided to be no exception on that front!!

Sixty-nine episodes in and John Magaro may be the best example of a Don’t Know Her? actor...
We had seen him in the likes of Orange Is the New Black (2015-2019), Carol (Todd Haynes, 2015) and The Big Short (Adam McKay, 2015) but hadn’t properly noticed him until First Cow (Kelly Reichardt, 2019) and Past Lives (Celine Song, 2023). And wow!
His soulful performances are the stuff of magic and we are still surprised how John (along with his co-stars Greta Lee and Teo Yoo) were not Oscar nominated for their work.
Join us as we go to the start of John’s career starring alongside Jodie Foster in The Brave One (Neil Jordan, 2007) and award-winning lead performance in Not Fade Away (David Chase, 2012) though to Past Lives.

It’s time to turn our attention to a real rising star… Harris Dickinson.
In our third episode of our miniseries predicting future Oscar nominees, Harris felt apt to discuss given his eclectic film work and hotly anticipated upcoming projects…
Still being a relatively new face in cinema does not prevent him giving us plenty to chat about…. Throughout the episode we focus on Beach Rats (Eliza Hittman, 2017), Postcards From London (Steve McLean, 2018), Triangle Of Sadness (Ruben Östlund, 2022), Where The Crawdads Sing (Olivia Newman, 2022), Scrapper (Charlotte Regan, 2023) and The Iron Claw (Sean Durkin, 2023).
We’re sure that his career will continue to flourish and we’ll have much more to talk about down the line, hopefully with Oscar nominations in tow.

Get ready to dive into the wonderfully enigmatic world of Aubrey Plaza!
In our second episode predicting future Oscar nominees, Aubrey felt like an obvious choice. She’s got it all - the talent, the charm, and a whole raft of underappreciated films/performances to make her feel overdue for voting bodies. It’s all a matter of the time. We hope.
Join us as we talk about this and journey through Aubrey’s filmography that includes gems such as Safety Not Guaranteed (Colin Trevorrow, 2012), Ingrid Goes West (Matt Spicer, 2017), Black Bear (Lawrence Michael Levine, 2020), Happiest Season (Clea DuVall, 2020) and Emily the Criminal (John Patton Ford, 2022).
What a ride it is. We gush, we marvel and we celebrate this truly singular talent.

We are back for our first episode of 2024 and it's a special one...
We're kicking off with a focus on actors we think are destined for nominations in the near future! And Michael is putting his chips on the marvellous Adeel Akhtar.
Adeel's filmography is an eclectic mix that includes Four Lions (Christopher Morris, 2010) Pan (Joe Wright, 2015), The Big Sick (Michael Showalter, 2017), Murder Mystery (Kyle Newacheck, 2019) or Ali & Ava (Clio Barnard, 2021). He will also be familiar to many for his TV work such such Fool Me Once (2024) and Sherwood (2022).
Adeel's succession surely(!) will continue with more roles, more exposure and an Oscar nomination? WE BELIEVE! So join us as we celebrate Adeel ahead of his future career high...

This week we were delighted to take on another audience suggestion to dive into the film career of Lizzy Caplan.
On the big screen Lizzy will be known to many for her iconic turn as Janice Ian in Mean Girls (Mark Waters, 2004), where her quote-a-long line readings and frenetic energy began her rise to stardom. From there she would continue to deliver committed big screen work in the likes of Cloverfield (Matt Reeves, 2008), Hot Tub Time Machine (Steve Pink, 2010), Bachelorette (Leslye Headland, 2012), The Interview (Evan Goldberg & Seth Rogen, 2014), Now You See Me 2 (Jon M. Chu, 2016) and Cobweb (Samuel Bodin, 2023).
So join as we talk through some of these career highlights, as we have again enjoyed the fun of visiting a star we had not yet considered and would strongly encourage more suggestions from our lovely audience!

Let’s get everyone talking about Kelly Reilly!
Kelly is a performer who clearly has a lot of industry respect, racking up many noteworthy credits. But where these roles felt primed to launch her to lofty heights, things never quite lined up as we’d imagine for someone who feels destined for big things.
In this career retrospective, we take on some of Kelly’s film highlights to discuss along the way: Pride & Prejudice (Joe Wright, 2005), Mrs Henderson Presents (Stephen Frears, 2005), Eden Lake (James Watkins, 2008), Sherlock Holmes and it’s sequel A Game Of Shadows (Guy Ritchie, 2009 & 2011), Flight (Robert Zemeckis, 2012), Calvary (John Michael McDonagh, 2014), 10x10 (Suzi Ewing, 2018) and A Haunting In Venice (Kenneth Branagh, 2023).
Having proven her prowess many times, we are holding out for that major moment which will give her the opportunity to dazzle us all. To help manifest those opportunities we have come up with some ideas of our own to share with you all.

Let's talk about...Eva Mendes.
Our host Scott has been eager to focus on Eva's career since the start of the podcast and FINALLY here we are... And what an interesting filmography to reflect on!
There's her roles alongside questionable cops in Training Day (Antoine Fuqua, 2001), The Other Guys (Adam McKay, 2010) and Bad Lieutenant: Port Of Call New Orleans (Werner Herzog, 2009) AND questionable fellas in Hitch (Andy Tennant, 2005), The Place Beyond The Pines (Derek Cianfrance, 2012), Holy Motors (Leos Carax, 2012) and Ghost Rider (Mark Steven Johnson, 2007). AND then there's quesitonable ladies in The Women (Diane English, 2008).
So she may have been somewhat pigeonholed but there is something undeniable about Eva on the big screen.
And should she decide to make a return to acting, we have dreamt up some suggestions to share with you all. So come listen to us discuss all of this and more on our Eva Mendes edition.

Harvey Fierstein!! A name (and a voice) that will conjure up great feelings of affection to those familiar with him.
He is a monumental figure in theatre - with a plethora of awards to back it up - and he helped pave the way for queer representation in Hollywood, but where are the film roles??
He will be known to most for his memorable turns as Frank, the make-up artist who turns his brother into the infamous Scottish nanny in Mrs. Doubtfire (Chris Columbus, 1993) or perhaps as Marty, the frantic cable company manager in Independence Day (Roland Emmerich, 1996). But it is Harvey's work in Torch Song Trilogy (Paul Boggart, 1988) that provides his crowning film achievement and gives him a rare leading role.
Join us for this Harvey love-fest where we reflect on his career, queer representation in Hollywood and much more!

Why are more people not celebrating Ira Sachs?
That question led to this episode where we reflect on a truly independent filmmaker who has worked with many recognisable faces (such as Pierce Brosnan, John Lithgow, Rachel McAdams and Ben Whishaw) yet has never quite had his moment in the limelight himself.
Ira has carved out his own brand of storytelling with films such as Married Life (2007), Keep the Lights On (2012), Love Is Strange (2014) and Passages (2023). It's a fascinating filmography and we can't wait for more.
Join us as we reflect on Ira's film career and dream about this future projects...

Do you know what we all need? More Colman Domingo.
We say this as eager film-goers who just LOVE to see Colman on screen whether that is in the opening of Steven Spielberg's Lincoln (2012), in Barry Jenkin's sublime adaptation of James Baldwin's If Beale Street Could Talk (2018) or as a ruthless villain in Janicza Bravo's Zola (2021). All films are elevated with Colman's presence.

It’s that time again to recognise an under appreciated star of the screen. We deliver a swerve though, turning our attention to a director and writer...

We will cheer about the almighty highs of Pariah (2011) and Mudbound (2017); celebrate the successes of TV biopic Bessie (2015), and even acknowledge where things didn’t work out quite so well in The Last Thing He Wanted (2020). We are eager for so much more from Dee, so we also look to the future to share some thoughts on what we’d love to see her involved in.

Join us to celebrate a truly one-of-a-kind performer, the legend that is Miriam Margolyes.Miriam is now known to many for her candidTV moments, regaling us all with her wildly memorable anecdotes. So for our pride celebration we couldn’t resist dipping into the film catalogue of this queer icon. To a generation of us she will have first captured our attention as Professor Sprout in Harry Potter and The Chamber Of Secrets (Chris Columbus, 2002) and The Deathly Hallows Part 2 (David Yates, 2011). To others it will have been as The a nurse in Baz Luhrmann’s Romeo + Juliet (1996) or Mrs. Mingott in Martin Scorsese’s The Age Of Innocence (1993). We loved talking about these films alongside Ladies In Lavender (Charles Dance, 2004) and Little Dorrit (Christine Edzard, 1987).It was a pleasure to reflect on this fun collection of film goodies and what makes Miriam so endlessly watchable. We also think about some roles we’d love to see her tackle in the future.

It is time to dig into the career of one of American cinema's most prominent faces, Beth Grant.
Beth has racked up credits like few others and solidified herself as one impressive, prolific actor!
