Sam Clements is curating a fictional film festival. He'll accept almost anything, but the movie must not be longer than 90 minutes. This is the 90 Minutes Or Less Film Fest podcast.
Back in May, Sam spoke to comedian Nick Helm about his favourite film, Army of Darkness. Before they got to that however, Nick talked about how he'd watched all seven Police Academy movies in one day. As six of them are under 90 minutes, we thought it would make great bonus episode while the Film Fest is on a short break until Christmas.
