Matinee To Midnight –a Podcast for Big Screen Enthusiasts

Welcome to 'Matinee To Midnight' - a podcast for big screen enthusiasts.

Following on from the programming selection at The Roundhay Garden cinema for their Valentines 2026 special discussion, Simon and Matthew recommend another two "romantic" films which, at the time of recording, are available to watch for free on YouTube.

On this show, Simon and Matthew, the co-proprietors of the fictional 2-screen repertory cinema, 'The Roundhay Garden', will be discussing and recommending movies built around a particular topic.

The topic could be a genre, an actor, an actress, a director, a year in movie history or any other theme that comes to mind.

This is a film recommendation show, but the movies Simon and Matthew choose to discuss are not necessarily their favourite films on a subject. They are the films that they feel are interesting and worthy of discussion.
