Malone's Movie Minute(s)

It's episode 22 of Malone's Movie Minute(s) podcast, Alicia Malone and Osher Günsberg are back together again in Los Angeles, and trying for the first time a live Google Hangout while they record the podcast. This week they chat about Captain America: Winter Soldier, which you should see if you're in the US, Australia or ANYWHERE else around the world. It's that good! On iTunes download a disturbing but wickedly funny indie thriller called Cheap Thrills. And our theme of the week is politicial thrillers, so Osher and Alicia chat through their favorites, What's yours? Tweet us @aliciamalone or @oshergunsberg and visit malonesmovieminute.com

Osher Gunsberg is back from his travels so the team of he and Alicia Malone are reunited! Well, via Skype anyway, because Alicia is in New Zealand... home to Peter Jackson, Hobbits, and Flight Of The Conchords. This week, out in US cinemas Alicia recommends the sharply funny Bad Words, which is also the directorial debut of Jason Bateman. In Australian cinemas (and US) Noah is out, and though this will no doubt be a divisive movie, it's an ambitious project by a creative director, and deserves to be watched before you make up your mind about it. On iTunes you can rent The Wolf Of Wall Street if you feel like some private debauchery, and be sure to see the tension filled foreign drama The Past, or the fun, fan funded Veronica Mars movie. And because Leash is in NZ, she and Osher give their picks for their favorite Kiwi movies. What's yours? Chat to us on twitter @aliciamalone and @oshergunsberg, and visit malonesmovieminute.com
