Chatting Pictures - The Irish Film Review

Marty Devine

Chatting Pictures podcast is a lovably chaotic critical journey through the history of Irish Cinema. In every episode, we choose an Irish film and give it the full Chatting Pictures treatment (which usually means drenching it in gin and ruining the DVD player). We measure fillums (films) on the Arron Sweater-o-Meter (how twee Oirish it is), whether it’s In the Ra (does it deal with themmuns?), and rank them by how many Snakes on the Staff (of St Patrick) out of ten it gets. Recorded in-person in the Drumquin Picturehouse in county Tyrone, Ireland
