Hello alien dogs and Sta-Puft Marshmallow Men and all the ships at sea. By now everyone knows we're retiring A Very Good Year after more than 100 episodes and coming back with an all new show for 2025. In the meantime we're revisiting some of our favorite guests and favorite movies by decade.


This week it's the 1980s, a stretch of time that is not commonly considered a golden age for Hollywood. We've got a lineup for this weeks episode that will dispute that take and they're coming with evidence in the form of some truly excellent cinema.


In this episode we'll hear from April Wright, Josh Lewis, Chris Nashawaty, Jen Cheney, Richard Shepard, Matt Singer, W. Axel Foley, Ty Burr, Carrie Couragen, Bilge Elbiri, Jen Johans, Daniela Taplin-Lundberg, John Pierson, and Jacob Knight.


Enjoy!

Ruthie's Table 4

Ruthie's Table 4

For more than 30 years The River Cafe in London, has been the home-from-home of artists, architects, designers, actors, collectors, writers, activists, and politicians. Michael Caine, Glenn Close, JJ Abrams, Steve McQueen, Victoria and David Beckham, and Lily Allen, are just some of the people who love to call The River Cafe home. On River Cafe Table 4, Rogers sits down with her customers—who have become friends—to talk about food memories. Table 4 explores how food impacts every aspect of our lives. “Foods is politics, food is cultural, food is how you express love, food is about your heritage, it defines who you and who you want to be,” says Rogers. Each week, Rogers invites her guest to reminisce about family suppers and first dates, what they cook, how they eat when performing, the restaurants they choose, and what food they seek when they need comfort. And to punctuate each episode of Table 4, guests such as Ralph Fiennes, Emily Blunt, and Alfonso Cuarón, read their favourite recipe from one of the best-selling River Cafe cookbooks. Table 4 itself, is situated near The River Cafe’s open kitchen, close to the bright pink wood-fired oven and next to the glossy yellow pass, where Ruthie oversees the restaurant. You are invited to take a seat at this intimate table and join the conversation.
