A weeks’ respite

Posted on September 4, 2019 by theretrocinema

Hi all,

This week we had planned on having the podcast of Angel Heart out and available to you tomorrow (Thursday night Aussie time).

But while Angry is finally over his flu, poor Gidgit is now in the wars and seriously all, there’s no way she can do a podcast this week.

But fear not! We will be back next week and talking all things Mickey Rourke, Lisa Bonet and Bobby De Niro 🙂

You can shake on it…
