Sam Clements is curating a fictional film festival. He'll accept almost anything, but the movie must not be longer than 90 minutes. This is the 90 Minutes Or Less Film Fest podcast.
In episode 140 Sam is joined by comedian, actor, and writer Tom Basden. His new film The Ballad of Wallace Island, also starring Tim Key and Carey Mulligan, is in UK cinemas now.
Tom has chosen The General (79 mins), Buster Keaton's classic 1926 silent comedy.
Sam and Tom discuss adapting his and Tim Key's short into a feature film, being inspired by Buster Keaton's performance, and the timeless quality of silent cinema.
