In spite of closed cinemas around the globe, many fascinating films have been released in 2020, so we discuss our favourites in the final podcast of this year.

UNCUT GEMS (02:27): Alan Mattli explains why this extremely stressful tale of a huckster (his word) trying to make it big in New York’s diamond district is one he can rewatch endlessly.

LITTLE WOMEN (15:47): Olivia Tjon-A-Meeuw gushes about this adaptation of the classic novel and its entirely uncynical worldview. (Even though marriage is an economic proposition.)

I’M THINKING OF ENDING THINGS (34:16): Astrit Abazi tells us why he would never break up with this film, in spite of, or perhaps, because we are not entirely sure what it is about.
