One Credit After Another Episode 15: Ridley Scott & ‘The Dog Stars’
One Credit After Another, the show where we dive into the career of a filmmaker or actor and their latest project.
We started this series a little worried that we might not be able to cover our favourite film makers. Thankfully, its been a year packed full of blockbuster movies from some of the biggest names in the business. The latest episode is absolutely no exception, as we deep dive into the career of Sir Ridley Scott and take a look at whether his new film, The Dog Stars’ is worth seeing.
Leaving no stone unturned, the boys chat everything about the varied career of the legendary film maker; gushing about the films that influenced their love of movies, the inconsistencies of Scott’s film catalogue, and what could arguably be seen as the greatest start to any movie career, his first film, ‘Alien’.
Some of the films discussed this week:
Alien
Blade Runner
Legend
Thelma and Louise
Gladiator
A Good Year
Prometheus
The Martian
The Last Duel
House of Gucci
Gladiator 2
As ever, we finish off with random question time, where the boys flex their grey matter and pose questions to each other about Scott’s film making career. From the films that lined the path to superstardom, all the way through to whether his career lives up to Guy Ritchie’s. With so much to talk about, it just makes sense to treat yourself to a listen - let us know what you think!
‘The Dog Stars’ is out in cinemas this Friday, 28th August - if you get a chance to watch it this weekend, let us know what you thought in the comments!
