Still high off the fumes of January’s
first Big Beat Cinema episode, we return
to the scene of the crime this week for a follow-up film special
with Finn, Manchester’s very own pope of trash.

In this episode, we start by diving into your feedback, ranging
from literary theory to eyewitness accounts from big beat OGs. We
expand the official BBC canon with even more
movies, including Go, Twin Town and The Bourne Identity.

We then go deeper, asking what Big Beat Cinema tells us about
life in the ‘90s and ’00s, how class fantasies and lad’s mags
shaped the subgenre, and whether that UK government anti-piracy
ad is a forgotten classic of the movement. Finally, we try to
locate the last gasp of BBC and explain why Moby and Fatboy Slim
fell out of favour with Hollywood.
