  • If These Walls Could Talk

    If These Walls Could Talk
    Nov 27 2024
    This Demi Moore-Sissy Spacey-Cher starrer shows how societal attitudes influenced women’s reproductive rights over decades With abortion rights once again under threat, the message in this HBO anthology film feels as urgent now as it did nearly three decades ago. Today, we’re revisiting a poignant, powerful, and, sadly, forgotten gem —the 1996 HBO film If These Walls Could Talk. This compelling anthology film chronicles the stories of three women grappling with unplanned pregnancies in three distinct eras: the 1950s, 1970s, and 1990s. This may be a modest made for TV film but it’s also one that resonates strongly even today, especially in light of the overturning of Roe v. Wade in the United States. Let’s unpack why this cinematic masterpiece deserves to be on your watchlist. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

  • The Late Shift

    The Late Shift
    Nov 18 2024
    In the latest episode, we dive into an underrated film that captures the legendary battle for late-night supremacy with wit and gravitas. Each person has their own favourite Jimmy, it’s either Kimmel or Fallon but never both. Conan O'Brien may have pivoted to podcasts and perhaps, headlining that oddball travel show but the highlight of his CV remains being one of the most compelling hosts on TV. No one loves Meyers, everyone misses Trevor Noah and few may have managed to pull off a remarkable second innings like Jon Steward. Yes, you’ve guessed it! We’re talking exclusively about those TV hosts who’ve ruled over late-night television with their astounding wit, fluid interviewing skills and that distinguished chutzpah. And in today’s episode of Lost and Found, we’re delving into a film that’s based on the real-life rivalry between two talk show hosts in the 90s – yes, we’re alluding to the 1996 film, The Late Shift.
