Talk Without Rhythm Podcast

This week on the Talk Without Rhythm Podcast I'm fulfilling a Patreon Pick from TWoRP Legionnaire Georges! Georges requested I take a look at the 1992 Quebec film Requiem pour un beau sans-cœur, aka Requiem for a Handsome Bastard, and I decided to make it a Cinéma de Québec double-feature by pairing it with a Denis Villeneuve film I haven't seen yet: 2009's Polytechnique.
