What do Attica and Christina have in common? Not much, but it's Christina's birthday episode. As is tradition, Christina is making Brian watch a movie he's never seen before. Her choice? Sidney Lumet's classic, Dog Day Afternoon. Decades ago, the 1975 bank-robbing caper snatched the hearts of audiences and critics alike. Al Pacino and Chris Sarandon got Oscar nominations for their portrayals as lovers embroiled in based-on-a-true-story shenanigans. Did Christina's love of the film stay as true? Did Brian like it at all? The Old Roommates book two tickets to Wyoming and take a closer look. Listen to this.
