Gosford Park (2001) - Jackie McMahon

The incredible Jackie McMahon, author of THE CLOAK AND DAGGER CLUB, joins host Emily J. Edwards to discuss a Robert Altman classic starring almost every great British actor who tread the boards: GOSFORD PARK. The Julian Fellows-penned, Oscar-winning film takes the classic closed-loom, country-mansion mystery and turns it on its head, as the upstairs/downstairs dynamic dissolves when no one really cares that a man met a violent end in his home.
