Hello, this is Simon Brew. I'm the editor of Film Stories magazine and we're just about to start the film stories podcast.

Six, five, main engines start, four, three, two, one. Ignition and...

Come with me.

And I show you how deep the rabbit hole goes.

And movies. Movies that had stories.

That the story just sucks a man.

This is just the beginning.

There are stories. We would beoured if you would join us.

Hello and a very warm welcome to Film Stories with Simon Brew.

I am Simon Brew.

As always, that's absolutely everything you need to know about me.

The aim of the podcast though, well, the title gives it away.

I'm here to talk off the stories of

film and I tend to talk about development stories, production stories, marketing stories, release

stories, all the bits and bobs really that go to make the films that we know and sometimes love,

just that, the films that we know and sometimes love. The films I tend to cover on this podcast

have more of a mainstream leaning to them than anything else. There's certainly films I'm interested in or invested in to some degree. I try not to do snark. I try not to punch down.

This podcast is as pure a celebration of cinema as I can possibly make it. Without further ado,

I'm going to get on with the first of the two films I want to talk about in this episode.

And for the first time in the near four year history of film stories, we're going to do a bit of Christopher Nolan.

Here's a clip, and I'll come to the story, the other side of this.

Little late, cool.
