Episode 48 – The Lady From Shanghai
For this episode, we return to the lovely Trylon Microcinema in Minneapolis to enjoy Orson Wells’ curious film noir, The Lady from Shanghai. The film stars Wells and his then wife Rita Hayworth, who makes her first appearance on our podcast. Melissa is the only member of our team who has seen the film before so both Tim and Jena have a chance to react to all sorts of weirdness that arises when an auteur has his vision compromised by studio interference. On the other hand, maybe some of that interference wasn’t such a bad thing…
Our next episode will jump forward a few years as we watch Edge of Tomorrow!
