Arrowcast Episode 3: The Lickerish Quartet

In this episode of Arrowcast, my Picture Show co-host Mike Ewins joins me for the second episode running. We discuss the hidden depths of Radley Metzger's The Lickerish Quartet. We talk about Metzger as an auteur, the film as a commentary on cinema and the way we watch. We talk about films we think influenced Metzger and films we think may have been influenced by The Lickerish Quartet. Finally, we cover why we think both the film and its director deserve a thorough critical reappraisal and where they fit in the cinematic canon.
