Iris and I get together to do two films with one thing in common. They have two characters called Little Bill. Hence the title. See what we did there. We cover a late but great western from Clint Eastwood featuring Gene Hackman as the dastardly sheriff of Big Whisky in Unforgiven and we talk about sad horny and high dudes and one lonely cameraman with a whorish wife in Paul Thomas Anderson’s Boogie Nights.

The audio is a little wonky on this so bear with us. Keep calm and be...
