Hope and Glory (#90)

This week, your hosts get in the bunker and brace themselves for John Boorman's tale of childhood wonder whilst living through the horrors of WWII in London with Hope and Glory. They discuss how the film takes a wholly refreshing spin on the typical 'war movie' and how it emulates Stand By Me (among other coming-of-age flicks), they talk about the greatest on-screen curmudgeon of all-time and terrifying child gangs and much more. The guys also roll the dice to find out what they'll be watching next week. Join us, won't you? Full List: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/BFI_Top_100_British_films Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/forscreenandcountry Twitter: https://www.twitter.com/bfi_pod Our logo was designed by the wonderful Mariah Lirette (https://www.instagram.com/mariahhx) Hope and Glory stars Sebastian Rice-Edwards, David Hayman, Sarah Miles, Ian Bannen, Derrick O'Connor, Sammi Davis and Susan Wooldridge; directed by John Boorman.
