Hello.

My name's Simon Brew.

I'm the editor of Film Stories magazine, and I thought I'd play you this little bit of music just to get you into the mood for the latest episode of the Film Stories podcast.

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.

We would be honored if you would join us.

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

I am Simon Brew as always.

It's absolutely everything you need to know about me.

The aim of the podcast though, as the title suggests, I'm here to talk of the stories of film.

And I tend to talk about development stories, production stories, behind the scenes stories, marketing story,

all those little bits of some bobs really that go to make the films that we know and sometimes love the films that we know and sometimes love. The films I tend to choose

for this podcast, they're more of a mainstream leaning to them than anything else. They're films I'm

interested in or invested in to some degree as well. I try not to do snark. I try not to punch down.

I just try to celebrate the fact that people have got films made.

And I don't think that's a very easy thing to do at all.

That's enough preamble waffle from me.

I'm going to crack on with the first of the two films I'm talking about

in this episode of film stories.
