The Cineskinny is the film podcast from some of the team behind The Skinny – every fortnight we take some kind of look at the wide world of The Movies. We're talking classic films, brand-new films, film festivals, the politics of film, arthouse thinkers *and* action bangers with loads of explosions.

Latest Episode
The soul-destroying crush of capitalism is laid bare in Park Chan-wook's sharp and deliriously funny black comedy No Other Choice. Two of our favourite pretty white boys, Paul Mescal and Josh O'Connor, find a deep connection over folk music in 1910s America in The History of Sound. And fresh from the Glasgow Film Festival press launch, the team pick out some of the titles that jump out to us ahead of our full GFF preview in a few weeks' time.
