Urgent, breaking news: Pam Boland has seen The Sheep Detectives and needs to talk about it. After that (and only after that) may Tristan Fidler and Simon Miraudo review their movies.

Then, Simon covers Dead Man’s Wire, the Opening Night feature for the Revelation Perth International Film Festival , from director Gus Van Sant. Stay tuned to the pod-exclusive segment for Simon’s bonus review of Jackass: Best and Last (“a triumph of the human spirit”) and the Blockbuster Babes’ picks from the rest of the Rev Film Fest program , INCLUDING their special presentation of John Wilson’s The History of Concrete on 15 July !
