  • Big respect to Anna and GoF!

    Anna Smith and her team deserve all the awards they have quite rightly accrued with this long running podcast. It attracts the crème de la crème of female film talent and champions many on their way up. Always engaging and thought provoking, this is the number one place to hear about the ever growing world of female film talent. Feminist film chat at its best.

  • More please

    Love this podcast. WHY ISN'T IT A TV SHOW? It’s the sort of interviews you crave on TV but only get a minute of. Fantastic anecdotes on films and behind-the-scenes showbiz. Anna the host comes across as informative and insightful, her questions get the sort of answers you don’t hear elsewhere. Her guests are reliably interesting. Thought-provoking and fun – my favourite combination! More please, thanks.

  • The female gaze.

    Girls On Film is an excellent podcast, and one I was happy to stumble across as I looked for a bit more variety in my podcast listening selection. I appreciate the conversation being further removed from the male gaze than 95% of movie podcasts out there, and it’s generally spoiler-free and very engaging.
