À propos de cet audio

Rewind back to the 90s with Molly and Chloe as we watch all the best, worst and coolest movies of the decade.


Some films were blockbusters, others cult classics. And some didn’t even break even. We’re watching these films and asking ourselves if they really were as good, or bad, as we remember. Plus we invite our expert industry friends to give us some insights on how well these films hold up. What's aged badly? Which film is a forever classic?


Updates every second and fourth Thursday of the month.

  • Sense and Sensibility: Flirtation, Feminism & Regency Frocks
    Dec 11 2025

    We joyfully announce our new episode about SENSE & SENSIBILITY, in honour of the 250th birthday of Miss Jane Austen. Adapted from that august lady’s 1811 novel, this beloved picture was decorated with many pretty awards and kind remarks upon its release in the year of 1995.


    Ms Molly and Miss Chloe are delighted to welcome costume designer Miss Eleanor Bull, who was part of the Oscar-winning team behind Poor Things. We discuss all the particulars of Sense & Sensibility, including the handsome and witty cast, the talent of star and scriptwriter Mrs Emma Thompson and the directorial eye of Mr Ang Lee.


    Thanks to Eleanor’s expertise, we consider the elegant work of the costumers Mrs Beavan and Mr Bright, who dressed Miss Kate Winslet, Mr Hugh Grant and the rest in the first style of Regency fashion.


    Last but certainly by no means least, we remember that most excellent performer, Mr Alan Rickman, ten years after his sad death.


    We also bestow awards for Best Outfit, Most Improved Character and more, and offer our suggestions of what to view next. While the discussion does tend towards the indelicate when matters arise pertaining to Mr Willoughby, it is an altogether enlightening conversation.

  • Dazed and Confused: Stoners, Slackers and Teen Spirit
    Nov 27 2025

    Alright, alright, alright! It’s back to ’76 with Richard Linklater’s freewheeling cult classic, Dazed and Confused. Fill your trunk with beers, put on some classic rock and hit the road, cos it’s time for some L-I-V-I-N’.


    Molly and Chloe take a ride through the 1993 movie’s themes: disaffected teens, post-Vietnam cynicism and living for the moment. We talk about Linklater’s approach to casting the then-unknown Matthew McConaughey, Ben Affleck, Parker Posey and Milla Jovovich, and how he created a naturalistic, authentic vibe with mixtapes and improv.


    Plus we raise a beer to the most 70s looks and most American moment, and salute one of the best soundtracks of the 90s.

  • Four Weddings and a Funeral: Bonking Brits, Bridesmaids & Comedy Beats
    Nov 13 2025

    We cordially invite you to 1994, to witness the marriage of Hugh Grant’s charming star-making performance and Richard Curtis’s screamingly funny screenplay. Rev up the Land Rover, wear your best hat, and yes, smoking is permitted at the wedding breakfast.


    Molly and Chloe get stuck into the buffet of excruciating social faux pas, nineties fashion and romantic regrets. We lift the veil on what makes the film’s comic moments shine, how inherited wealth was displayed then and now, and whether the film’s portrayal of straight and gay relationships rings true today. And of course we crown Kristin Scott Thomas as our Maid of Honour.


    We also throw out some bouquets to the Most Gorgeous Look and most 90s moments, and raise a toast to the very best of Britflick swearing.
