Welcome Kernels and Cornheads to The Popcornhead Podcast!

Each week we will be analysing a different film, past or present, the good, the bad, and the sometimes ugly. We’ll talk pre-production, filming, our own thoughts, any historical context, and the occasional wormhole, things can get a little weird around here.

So if you enjoy film analysis from an often comical perspective, this is definitely for you!

Chinatown (1974)

November 20, 2024 • Gavin Wilton, Tom Brady, Rory Moore • Season 3 • Episode 25

We’ve done it Cornheads, a quarter century of episodes!

To celebrate this momentous occasion this week we are looking at the monumental Chinatown, directed by the controversial Roman Polanski, with one of the greatest screenplays ever written from the late great Robert Towne, and starring the immortal Jack Nicholson alongside Faye Dunaway.

This is undoubtedly one of my top 5 favourite films, and it always will be, it’s nothing short of magnificent.
