About this episode
The episode discusses the film 'Anatomy of a Murder' and includes mini-reviews of three other films.
This week, the boys drink and keep it positive as they head back to 1959 to discuss Otto Preminger’s “Anatomy of a Murder”. We discuss how it aged, how they wrote and directed a difficult female character, and whether Jimmy Stewart was the best choice for the lawyer in this courtroom drama based on a true story. Before that conversation, we have some spoiler-free mini-reviews of “She Dances”, “Pretty Lethal”, and “Project Hail Mary”.
