Welcome back to The Fixate & Binge Podcast, for the first episode of a new 10-part series on underappreciated films.

Spanning over 55-years of forgotten Hollywood gems, join Joe as every episode he discusses in depth his selection of five films that are worth rewatching or even viewing for the first time!

Part 1 of this 10-part series the following films are reviewed:

WHERE EAGLES  DARE (1968) Starring Richard Burton, Clint Eastwood
HAROLD & MAUDE (1971) Starring Ruth Gordon, Bud Cort
PAPILLON (1973) Starring Steve McQueen, Dustin Hoffman
THE MAN FROM SNOWY RIVER (1982) Starring Kirk Douglas, Tom Burlinson

The hope of this podcast is to engender a greater appreciation of the magic of moviemaking and how far the film industry has come in the preceding decades.

For this new season, special thanks to our new composer from Sweden for the gracious use of the song Breach and Sink by AVYSAE -- whose Spotify page can be found here.
