On this episode of 'Revisiting the Oscars' we're headed 12 years in the not so distant past to discuss one of the first years with a bumper crop of movies - 9 in the case of 2011!
We're revisiting the silent era (The Artist), fixing clocks and meeting cinematic legends (Hugo), visiting the Deep South in the 60s (The Help), meeting literary legends (Midnight in Paris), revolutionising baseball (Moneyball), dealing with family tragedy in Hawaii (The Descendants) and in NYC Post 9/11 (Extremely Loud & Incredibly Close), following a horse across Europe in WW1 (War Horse) and doing nothing short of contemplating the nature of life itself (The Tree of Life).
All this and the usual nonsense, banter and fun facts!
