One of the great masters is back with a new movie later this month. In anticipation of Martin Scorsese's Killers of the Flower Moon, Drew and Billy are drafting Scorsese films for this episode. They do a little general Marty talk at the beginning to try and answer if he is indeed the greatest American filmmaker ever, and then they start drafting. Listen and decide who ended up with the better lineup. We'll put a poll on our social media channels a day after this episode goes up to see who won.

In Part 2 of our August podcast series, "Missed Directions," it's time to go Mann-hunting. Each week during the month of August, we are discussing a film that Drew or Billy haven't seen from a director with a new movie coming later this year. It's a way for us to fill in some gaps on filmmakers like Richard Linklater, Sofia Coppola, and more. And we'd love if you watched along with us before or after listening to the episodes!

This week Drew was joined by Max Havey, freelance culture writer for St. Louis Magazine, to talk Michael Mann's 1986 serial killer thriller Manhunter. We got into Mann's career, Manhunter's influence on movies and TV, and other Hannibal Lecter adaptations.
