Arthouse Legends Podcast


Welcome to Arthouse Legends Podcast - Where High Art and Geek Culture Collide! The goal of this podcast is to take a look at critically acclaimed and well-received films and consider if these films truly deserve their revered status in the cultural zeitguest. Using our combined film knowledge, geeky obsessions and general fart jokes, we take a bite out of much-beloved films, sometimes in love, other times in scorn, but never out-of-bounds.

In 2013, Director Steve McQueen took on his most ambitious film to date, telling the stunning true story of Solomon Northrup, a free Northern African American man who was kidnapped and taken South as a slave decades before the American Civil War. Starring Chewitel Eljiofor, Michael Fassbender, Benedict Cumberbatch, Brad Pitt along with Lupita N'yongo (who won the Best Supporting Actress Oscar for the role).
