Happy Memorial Day 2020. Wow what a year it's been so far. Before Patrick takes a leave of absence, I asked him to come on during my birthday month to discuss one of my favorite filmmakers, the legendary Billy Wilder. Perhaps you've heard of him? Our main reviews include Ace In The Hole & The Apartment but we certainly touch upon a lot of his work from beginning to end including Double Indemnity, Sunset Boulevard and more! During the What We Watched Segment, Patrick discusses Flight Of The Navigator, I mean, a lot of various Giallo films he's been catching up with lately and I inquire about the future of comedy while discovering that both Step Brothers and Burn After Reading are masterpieces.
