Missing Frames: Catching up with Cinema

When it was first released in 1954, Johnny Guitar was dismissed by critics and left in the dust. In the time since, Nicholas Ray's landmark western has been dubbed one of the greatest films of all time by the likes of François Truffaut and Martin Scorsese. Brad Gullickson returns to celebrate Missing Frames' 70th episode and to introduce Shawn to this classic masterwork.
