Series One - Episode 10: Ang Lee | Ang Lee broke onto the filmmaking scene with PUSHING HANDS and managed to get even further by then making outstanding films such as CROUCHING TIGER, HIDDEN DRAGON, THE ICE STORM, HULK, BROKEBACK MOUNTAIN and, most recently, LUST, CAUTION. Hatter and I chose CROUCHING TIGER, HIDDEN DRAGON as our film of choice and then we dig deeper into his back catalogue - and even choose our films from the 'top shelf'. | 8/3/11 | Free | View In iTunes |

ExplicitSeries One - Episode 9: Danny Boyle | It was inevitable - and believe me, there will be SO-O-O-O much extra reading material on the blog (www.filmlocker.blogspot.com). We manage to break down all his back catalogue to some extent - and specifically focussing on TRAINSPOTTING as our film of choice. | 7/27/11 | Free | View In iTunes |

Series One - Episode 7: David Fincher | Having spent a couple of weeks with, how do I put it, more obscure directors, I have a feeling this will be a bit more popular amongst listeners as we have chosen David Fincher, the director of THE SOCIAL NETWORK, PANIC ROOM and FIGHT CLUB. We choose SE7EN to focus upon as our centre point... | 7/13/11 | Free | View In iTunes |

CleanSeries One - Episode 6: Pedro Almodovar | The show gets some international flavour as we discuss one of the very best to come out of Spain. His films have been lush, melancholy, and heartwarming - sometimes all at once! Pedro Almodovar is in The Locker for Episode Six with special emphasis on his wonderful film, TALK TO HER. | 7/6/11 | Free | View In iTunes |

ExplicitSeries One - Episode 5: Stanley Kubrick | After a week in the new school, we go back to a master. You might think he's brilliant, you might think he's pretentious - but for better or for worse Stanley Kubrick is in The Locker for Episode Five with special emphasis on his horror classic, THE SHINING. | 6/27/11 | Free | View In iTunes |

Series One - Episode 4: Joel and Ethan Coen | Having spent two weeks covering film directors who may be a little off the beaten track, we regain the road by moving to younger and hipper folk in Joel and Ethan Coen. Having both watched both back-catalogues, Hatter and I argue it out with our favourites and not-so-favourite films with an in-depth analysis of NO COUNTRY FOR OLD MEN | 6/22/11 | Free | View In iTunes |

Series One - Episode 3: David Cronenberg | This third episode in the series focuses on David Cronenberg ... as Hatter proudly tells us is Canadian. The film we choose to break apart is THE FLY, but we get deep into discussion about his other films DEAD RINGERS, EASTERN PROMISES and A HISTORY OF VIOLENCE. | 6/10/11 | Free | View In iTunes |

Series One - Episode 2: Woody Allen | This week we change from one New-Yorker to another: Woody Allen. Hatter and Simon break through their likes - and dislikes - towards this controversial choice and then break down 'Hannah and Her Sisters' as, what they believe, is the best example of a Woody Allen film. | 6/1/11 | Free | View In iTunes |
