Surprise guest Jon Solomon is here to talk about Elaine May's unfairly-maligned buddy comedy about two bumbling songwriters who end up at the center of a revolution in the fictional country of Ishtar. A bomb when it was released, it's now a well-liked cult film whose reputation has grown, and one of the funniest movies we've covered for the show.

Starring Warren Beatty, Dustin Hoffman, Isabella Adjani, and Charles Grodin. Written and directed by Elaine May. Songs by Paul Willams.
