So two weeks ago we attempted to recall the plot of You Only Live Twice from memory, after having last watched the movie in 2021.

This week on the Kill James Bond podcast we're honouring our ironclad commitment to international cinema by checking out this film from a small indie country they're calling 'Norway'.

This week on KJB, Alice shares with us a film that holds an immense amount of meaning for her; Pedro Almodóvar's 1999 'All About My Mother'.
