The Retros
We discuss the best picture decisions made by the Academy and whether they were right or wrong...we decide! We also discuss the many different categories and movies of the particular Oscar year we are reviewing and add a few new categories ourselves.

Episode 35: 1967 Intermission
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
This week we look back at our 1967 episode and see if it needs any mistakes rectified or omissions told.
In this episode:
We made some mistakes. We hold ourselves accountable for those mistakes! Even if we have to make fun of each other for making those mistakes.
We talk about Hank Stram and Superbowl 1...briefly. And how he introduced Gatorade to football and the rest of sports from a little known scientist at the University of Florida.
We also talk a bit more about the entr'acte and how it was common in movies in the 60s. Ok, a lot more, and whether or not intermissions should be used in modern films.
This intermissions' outro music, The Sound of Silence by Simon and Garfunkel, used three times in The Graduate, including the iconic final bus scene.
All this and more, inside a compact thirty minutes!
Thank you for listening and watch more movies!
