This week, we watch Jules Dassin’s London-based masterpiece, Night and the City!
We highly recommend you watch the film before listening to the episode, because it’s excellent, and we spoil the ending. This film is currently available on DVD, and there is also currently a copy on YouTube with Greek subtitles.
Join us on March 7th for our episode on Gun Crazy!
