        <description>“Maybe the world’s best film podcast” David Cairns, shadowplay blog.

'Music for Films' the underground cinema podcast.

Made in Scotland, 'Music for Films' is about the music, films and the music for films which have shaped people’s lives.

On our mission to explore the subterranean sources of London’s culture we created the Scala Underground Film Map, which imagines the Tube as a film festival programmed by the legendary cinema at Kings Cross.

The BeeKeepers are interested in connecting the past, the present and the future, and in people choosing their own adventures.</description>

      <itunes:summary>1 hour 43 min podcast version. Not safe for work. Contains some swearing and adult themes.

Interesting people talk about the music, films and music for films which have shaped their lives.

Roz Kaveney, Tim Concannon and their guest Andrew Smith wander down busy Caledonian Road in North London, to Housmans peace bookshop near to Kings Cross station. They discuss two linked technologies produced by the atomic age, computers and nuclear arms, and the ways that the peace movement and radicalism have responded to both being part of modern armed conflict.

The starting point for the conversation is Pete Watkins’s 1965 film for the BBC, banned from broadcast at the time, ‘The War Game‘. Made two decades before ‘Threads‘ and Raymond Briggs’s ‘Where the Wind Blows‘, Pete Watkins’s film is a documentary-style depiction of Britain under nuclear attack. It was withdrawn before transmission by the BBC under government pressure, but went on to win an Oscar for Best Documentary.

Caledonian Road is notable for two things: its longstanding Irish community and Housmans Bookshop, opened in 1959 and named after Laurence Houseman the gay, pacifist playwright who suggested the Peace Pledge Union establish a permanent base in 1948. As well as publishing Peace News, it became a focus of the Campaign for Nuclear Disarmament .

The two worlds converged in 1974 when an IRA bomb blew up the pillar box outside the shop. The explosion incinerated all the copies of Campaign Against Arms Trade’s first newsletter.

Every month, interesting people talk about the music, films and music for films which have shaped their lives.

2016 Christmas special. Tim Concannon and Roz Kaveney visit the Cinema Museum in Oval, South London - the former Lambeth workhouse, where Charles Chaplin spent Christmas one year as a small boy - and one of his homes in Kennington, where Chaplin grew up.

Recorded in September as part of the annual Scalarama film festival - when we screened Chaplin's film 'The Immigrant', which has its centenary in 2017, near to his childhood home at 39 Methley Street - we also talk to cast and crew of the play about Chaplin that was on at the Cinema Museum, 'The Little Tramp'.

The second half of our extended podcast version of the show is a discussion of the state of Britain a century  after Chaplin lived in poverty in South London, how there's too much great television (like 'Twin Peaks' and 'iZombie') but not enough time to watch all of it.

This is followed by 'What Is Crouching And Why Does it End?' (The title of this essay is inspired by a Stephen King's Lovecraftian short story).

Every month, interesting people talk about the music, films and music for films which have shaped their lives.

2016 Christmas special. Tim Concannon and Roz Kaveney visit the Cinema Museum in Oval, South London - the former Lambeth workhouse, where Charles Chaplin spent Christmas one year as a small boy - and one of his homes in Kennington, where Chaplin grew up.

Recorded in September as part of the annual Scalarama film festival - when we screened Chaplin's film 'The Immigrant', which has its centenary in 2017, near to his childhood home at 39 Methley Street - we also talk to cast and crew of the play about Chaplin that was on at the Cinema Museum, 'The Little Tramp'.

Every month, interesting people talk about the music, films and music for films which have shaped their lives.

Tim and Roz Kaveney are joined by DJ and film scholar Lexi Turner at Sloane Square, where the original production of the Rocky Horror Show was staged at the Royal Court's Theatre Upstairs to 63 people in June 1973. A remake, starring Laverne Cox from 'Orange Is The New Black' as Frank-N-Furter was broadcast on the US Fox TV network in October 2016. How does the original hold up, more than forty years later?

In the podcast, Tim and  Roz discuss 'Rocky Horror' in light of some  trans history and Jennie Livingston's 1990 documentary 'Paris is Burning' about New York drag queens.  Savaş Arslan and Cem Kaya give us some insights into Turkish cinema's take on Dracula. Tim and Shruti count down their top ten of 'Yanksploitation' films,  remakes and ripoffs of American movies in other cultures which subvert the original material.

Tim Concannon, Roz Kaveney and film-maker Cem Kaya visit Umit and Son.

We explore Umit Mesut's astonishing shop, a treasure house of every film format imaginable: from 8 and 16mm film, to rare Turkish VHS tapes. With Umit, we discuss the legacy of Turkish action star and radical film director Yılmaz Güney. 

On our Scala map of London's underground cinema we've put Cem's documentary about Turkish "Yeşilçam" cinema, 'Remake, Remix, Rip-Off' at Dalston Junction. 

We talk about Cem's film with scholar Iain Robert Smith, whose book 'The Hollywood Meme' discusses transnational remakes of everything from 'The Godfather' and 'The Exorcist' to the Turkish 'Wizard of Oz' and the Indian Superman. 

Roz and Tim ponder the legacy of "films so bad they're good", Susan Sontag's 'Notes on Camp', as well as trans pioneer and the acclaimed "Worst Film-maker of All Time", the legendary Edward D Wood Jnr.

      <itunes:summary>1 hour version, first broadcast 5pm, 21st November 2016 on Resonance FM in London.

Every month, interesting people talk about the music, films and music for films which have shaped their lives.

In November, Roz and Tim revisit the locations of 1970s 'Nightbirds' on Commercial Street, Whitechapel, in East London. Made by gay American underground playwright, costumiere, screenwriter, actor, film producer, editor and director Andy Milligan, the horror critic Stephen King described another of Milligan's films as "the work of morons with cameras."

An erotic drama filmed in black and white, 'Nightbirds' is about two young people who meet by chance and fall into like and into bed with one another, played by Julie Shaw in her only screen role and Berwick Kaler (now one of North England's leading panto dames). 

'Nightbirds' depicts a vanished London of grubby lofts and peeling paint. Bringing a queer eye to a destructive straight liaison, Milligan's film is a meditation on the abject, the wretched but - unusually for underground cinema of the period, dominated by the likes of Kenneth Anger - in the heterosexual rather than LGBT realm.

Unscreened at the time that it was completed, the only print of it was bought by Nicolas ('The Neon Demon') Winding Refn on eBay for $25,000, who worked with the BFI to restore it for DVD release. Critic and author Kim Newman discusses this and Milligan's other exploitation films made in England with us, and BFI's  Vic Pratt and Will Fowler chat about BFI's Flipside DVD title.

Bringing a queer eye to a destructive straight liaison, Milligan's film is a meditation on the abject, the wretched but - unusually for underground cinema of the period, dominated by the likes of Kenneth Anger - in the heterosexual rather than LGBT realm.

Unscreened at the time that it was completed, the only print of it was bought by Nicolas ('The Neon Demon') Winding Refn on eBay for $25,000, who worked with the BFI to restore it for DVD release. Critic and author Kim Newman discusses this and Milligan's other exploitation films made in England with us, and BFI's  Vic Pratt and Will Fowler chat about BFI's Flipside DVD title.

      <itunes:summary>2 hour version, first broadcast 8pm, 18th July 2016 on Resonance FM in London.

Every month, interesting people talk about the music, films and music for films which have shaped their lives.

Roz and Tim loiter on Clapham Common, near to the home of Angela Carter, the late novelist, poet and screen-writer with director Neil Jordan of 'The Company of Wolves'. (Which is at Clapham Common on our Scala map of London underground films).

Our guest in the studio is Rosemary Hill, Augustus Pugin's biographer and contributing editor to the London Review of Books, who's edited a collection of Carter's published verse from 1963-1971, 'Unicorn'. We talk to Rosemary about Angela, architecture, cinema, "gimcrack, the fantastic, the free play of the imagination" and the wild woods.
