Episode description
Welcome to Remake Rumble, the podcast that pits a classic film against its remake in a dazzling display of motion picture pugilism. Two films enter, one film leaves.
This episode it’s cowboys versus katanas as Akira Kurosawa classic SEVEN SAMURAI (1954) stands off against Old West overhaul THE MAGNIFICENT SEVEN (1960).
As ever, we’ll cut both films down to size and determine which is the roughest and/or toughest, as well as test our silver screen smarts in a rootin’ tootin’ hoedown lowdown - or, as the city-slickers are calling it, “a quiz”.
Created by David Rattigan
Hosted by Jonny Lee, Daniel Gilmore, and David Rattigan
Featuring Jess (The Socialist Film Show)
