About this episode
Morgan and Jeannine discuss the 1947 film 'CROSSFIRE' featuring Robert Mitchum and its themes of post-war antisemitism.
Welcome to It's A Wonderful Podcast! Focussing in on another one of the show's favourite actors for a career-spanning series in June as Morgan and Jeannine take a look at a varied selection of ROBERT MITCHUM movies! A trifecta of Robert's this week as Mitchum is alongside Robert Young, and a typically tremendously vicious Robert Ryan in this dark, brutal Noir tackling post-war antisemitism that acts as the punch-in-the-face counterpart to 1947's Best Picture winner; as Morgan and Jeannine talk Edward Dmytryk's CROSSFIRE (1947) co-starring Gloria Grahame!
