Welcome to 'Don't You Want Me?' - a podcast series taking a lighthearted look at the most relatable, intriguing and dysfunctional relationships in film.
For this episode we’re clambering onto our car tops for 2016’s Damien Chazelle movie musical La La Land. This film about found and lost Hollywood dreams held the 2017 Best Film Academy Award for about thirty seconds, before missing out to the Barry Jenkins-directed Moonlight. That’s show business. And we have our own star joining us this evening to chat about the connection between Mia and Sebastian, it’s podcaster, all-round cinephile and La La Land superfan Amelie Thomas.

Broadcast News (1987)
Welcome to 'Don't You Want Me?' - a podcast series taking a lighthearted look at the most relatable, intriguing and dysfunctional relationships in film.
Today we’re anchoring the news with 1987’s James L. Brooks romantic comedy drama Broadcast News. Holly Hunter must negotiate a dubious situationship with William Hurt alongside an agenda-heavy friendship with Albert Brooks, all in a highly stressful work environment steeped in perspiration and shoulder pads. Joining us today to dig into this love triangle is somewhat of an expert in journalism and broadcasting, it’s writer, editor and podcaster John Brewin.

WHAM! (2023)
Welcome to 'Don't You Want Me?' - a podcast series taking a lighthearted look at the most relatable, intriguing and dysfunctional relationships in film.
In this episode, we’re breaking your mama’s heart with 2023’s documentary film WHAM! directed by Chris Smith. This movie marks the 40th anniversary of the release of Wham’s debut album Fantastic and centres around the relationship between Andrew Ridgeley and George Michael: how they came to be pals, how they flourished together as a creative partnership and how - in the space of just a few years - they became the ultimate pop embracing, sportswear-clad, sunshine-fuelled global phenomenon. Club Tropicana drinks are free, but can you put a price on true friendship?
