A Russian & Soviet Movie Podcast with Ally Pitts
Matt Billingsley, editor and Iannucci aficionado, joins Ally Pitts to discuss this black comedy satire. It was effectively banned in Russia, but well-reviewed by Russian critics (if you don't read Russian, just count the thumbs-up) . CONTENT WARNING: the movie depicts multiple executions and implied sexual assault off-screen. SPOILERS from about 10 minutes in until the end, although some things should be fairly easy to anticipate... The movie stars Steve Buscemi , Simon Russell Beale , Jeffrey Tambor , Michael Palin , Andrea Riseborough , Rupert Friend and Jason Isaacs ( hello to Jason Isaacs , obviously). The show's intro music is Cold by Sasha Ilyukevich and the Highly Skilled Migrants.

Lyn Seren, film enthusiast, cat admirer, and car owner, joins Ally Pitts to discuss British film Lady Macbeth , which features a star-making performance by Florence Pugh. The screenplay is an adaptation of Nikolai Leskov's 19th century novella Lady Macbeth of Mtsensk District by Alice Birch . Expect SIGNIFICANT SPOILERS from 4 minutes in until the end. CONTENT WARNING: If you're planning to watch the film, you should be aware that it contains scenes of domestic violence and sexual assault . As you'll hear in the episode, we recorded this when the film had its initial run in UK cinemas back in 2017, before R. Kelly's sexual abuse against minors was as widely known as it is now. Our intro music is Cold by Sasha Ilyukevich and the Highly Skilled Migrants.

1:01:40As the title suggests, this is the first one of these. Buy Zona by Geoff Dyer and support the podcast! The first ten minutes or so of the podcast are non-spoilery but from then on EXPECT SPOILERS. My guest is the most excellent Lyn Setchell. Many thanks to Owen Choules and Chris Mead of Classic Schmassic for their inspiration (and let's face it, essentially their format).
