Part 1 of the Portman Season Finale

Dear Rowan,

We are gathered here today to begin a fine farewell to Eric Portman. In this two-part episode we will take a look at one of his finest films by my account. At least one of my favorite films for which he was a part. That is not to say any of his other roles are less engaging, but this is one of Papa’s favorite films and I came to it only through my research into Mr. Portman. Otherwise I may never have discovered it as even the films director John Huston rarely speaks of it. Luckily, I was able to track down a copy of the film on DVD, which was no simple affair but it was ever so worth it.

Here we go with a look into a Director and two Actors as they look into the Father of Psychoanalysis.

With all my Love and Admiration,

Papa
