Episode Twenty-Four: The “Noirest” Noirs
There’s noir and then there Noir. Today we discuss two films that are at the top of the list of "The Greats" – both featuring scorned women. One is an unflinching look at stardom, the cruelty of celebrity, the hell of being an aging actress and the clamor for fame. The other? Lust, money and an inconvenient husband has our lead actress portraying one of the baddest female baddies ever in a movie. Come with us on this journey while we discuss Sunset Boulevard (1950) and Double Indemnity (1944).

Episode Twenty-Three: Laugh Out Loud
Airplane (1980) & Groundhog Day (1993)
Our films this week are here to make you laugh out loud. One turns the phrase “the friendly skies” on it's head, it's back, and it's side -- then tosses everything into a blender for a puree of absolute mayhem. Our other comedy takes us through a ten year, never-ending nightmare in the course of two hours. The film does it so perfectly that you’ll watch the film again to take in all the comedy genius of the lead actor and director. You'll do it over and over and over just to figure out how they managed a sublime feat!
