Episode 110 - Burtman Or (The Under-rated Genius of Burt Lancaster) (Trapeze, Criss-Cross, Birdman of Alcatraz, The Train, The Swimmer, Valdez is Coming, Come Back Little Sheba, Rope of Sand)

Welcome to 'Matinee To Midnight' - a podcast for big screen enthusiasts.

For episode 10, Simon and Matthew unveil another star in the Roundhay Garden Cinema's "Alley of Glory" - this time for one of their favourite actors, Burt Lancaster. Following a discussion on his life and career, Simon and Matthew programme and discuss three movies each which demonstrate this incredible actor who is just not talked about enough these days.

On this show, Simon and Matthew, the co-proprietors of the fictional 2-screen repertory cinema, 'The Roundhay Garden', will be discussing and recommending movies built around a particular topic.

The topic could be a genre, an actor, an actress, a director, a year in movie history or any other theme that comes to mind.

And they will each be choosing movies from the topic to programme at the cinema to fill the schedule - a 'Matinee' movie, a 'Prime Time' movie, and a 'Midnight Movie'.

This is a film recommendation show, but the movies Simon and Matthew choose to discuss are not necessarily their favourite films on a subject. They are the films that they feel are interesting and worthy of discussion - and best fit into these programming slots.
