Returning guest and friend to the show Nat Almirall joins us to
talk about the great Otto Preminger. We debate the merits of his
beloved noir mystery LAURA, and then praise the incredible
melodrama, DAISY KENYON. We also touch upon his filmography later
in the show including a couple of his classic courtroom dramas.
Before that, though, we have discussions about THAT AWKWARD
MOMENT, GROUNDHOG DAY, and Patrick talks about indulging in some
low-budget VHS horror films.
