The second Merchant-Ivory film on this list is next on the podcast as Brendan and Jason discuss A Room with a View. They discuss Daniel Day-Lewis making something human out of a seemingly cartoonish character, Charlotte perfecting the art of martyrdom, the homoerotic bathing scene and much more. Plus: they debate how much of the film is winking at the audience just a bit.

 

The guys also roll the dice to find out what they'll be watching next week. Join us, won't you?
