Midnight Run Ep 21. Sports Movies
Listen now
Description
Don't go away, just because you don't like sport. This is not a niche subject. Most sports movies are not about the sport itself. A sports move is about the personal experience in order to achieve. It is about the fine line between success and failure, it is about heroes and villains, great montages, great drama and humour. We also decide if Gladiator is a sports film and if so, why it would be important to be undefeated in a competitor's career. Our favourite scenes and performances are discussed along with our top 10s (11 in Matt's case). There are also 3 quizzes, one of which Lewis totally messes up. We reveal our own personal sporting memories, some of which are more painful than others and reveal Matt's darting nickname.  Magnificently woven amongst that we discuss what wines we would serve if we had to cook each other, the best Carry On films to watch back to back and our own tribute to a close friend of the family that recently passed away. Just listening to this episode makes you a gold medalist in our eyes.
