The Movie Tree
Looking for cookie-cutter movie reviews? You won’t find them here. But if you’re into passionate, no-nonsense takes from two mates who just love film—welcome aboard!
Each week on The Movie Tree, GPG and Poncho dive into a new movie, but there’s a twist: every pick has to connect to the last one—by actor, director, or writer. It’s all part of their signature Branching Theory.
Catch bonus content and behind-the-scenes posts on Facebook and TikTok, and if there’s a film you think they should cover, hit them up at [email protected]. You can also join in with other listeners on The Movie Tree's Discord.
Adios Bitches.
