Not only Kalum from "The Rolistes Podcast" returns with an episode of Film Studies this month, but also two of our favourite guests from our "Delicatessen (Butchers & Feelings)" episode are back:

Scott Brown from Lawful & Orderly which you can catch live on the NowSayers Twitch channel.
Bee Zelda from The Broadswords and a GM for Magpie Curated Play Program

Follow us to the banks of the Danube River! It is not quite clear where in Central Europe it might be. A colourful gallery of characters await you in Emir Kusturica's "Black Cat, White Cat" from 1998.

As usual, we review this film and discuss ways it could inspire tabletop RPG adventures, characters or practices.

"Sonja & Conan vs the Ninjas" by Guillaume Jentey
"Kids on Bikes" & "Teens in Space" by Doug Levandowski & Jonathan Gilmour for Hunters Entertainment
"Blades in the Dark" by John Harper for One Seven

"Be Goose Do Crime" by Nullh and inspired by "Honey Heist" by Grant Howitt for Rowan, Rook & Decard

Other things

Once more, our next episode is already recorded!

BananaChan and Yvonne H. (Sen.H.H.S) joined me to discuss about " The Chinese Feast" from 1995 directed by Tsui Hark.

See you then for more silver screen extravaganza.

Cheers

Kalum
