"They're saying Sonny Hayes isn't a has-been. He's a never-was." The Stinking Pause Podcast - reviewing movies since 2013. Some good...some not so good. In the latest episode of The Stinking Pause Podcast, we buckle up for a slightly unhinged trip through speed, spectacle and sheer cinematic nonsense. First up, we dive into F1: The Movie, a modern racing picture built on big-screen gloss, high-stakes drama and the sort of intense thousand-yard stares that suggest the next corner may decide the fate of civilisation. Joining the conversation is Paul, a man whose taste in films remains as selective and unpredictable as ever, though this time we may just have found a subject close enough to his heart to keep the grumbling to a manageable level. From there, we take a wider look at Hollywood's long love affair with motor racing movies, from the swagger and danger of the classic era to the polished pressure-cooker world of more modern racing dramas. It's a lively run through the films that turned fast cars, fragile egos and split-second decisions into some of cinema's most reliable crowd-pleasers. And then, because no episode of The Stinking Pause Podcast would be complete without a sharp turn into deeply questionable territory, we head into Celluloid Stinkers country with The Wild Women of Wongo. It's bizarre, baffling and exactly the sort of film that leaves you wondering who thought any of it was a good idea. Fast cars, old Hollywood, Paul being Paul, and one gloriously ropey slice of nonsense. In other words, business as usual.
