No bah hum-buggin around Director's Club this time of
year. I managed to enlist two of my favorite people to listen
to -- of course, former co-host and podcast emeritus Patrick Ripoll
is back not only for Episode 99, but for Episode 100 in
January! Also recruited this time is the great Sergio Mims of
WHPK, who always comes on this time of year to talk about a classic
director. This time, we're focusing on the anti-auteur
Michael Curtiz. Yes, he did CASABLANCA, one of the greatest
films ever made, but we touch on a myriad of other titles including
THE PRIVATE LIVES OF ELIZABETH & ESSEX, THE SEA HAWK, THE BREAKING
POINT, FLAMINGO ROAD, DODGE CITY and so much more!
There's a brief mention of STAR WARS at the very end as well as a
welcome (?) digression Jim and Patrick style as they attempt to
wrap things up. The big news is that Episode 100 is finally
arriving in two weeks. It will be a combination Best of 2015
episode of course, but joining us is friend and favorite Bill
Ackerman, who will be asking us questions about what it's like
hosting Director's Club. Submit all feedback and 2015
favorites to directorsclubpodcast@gmail.com. You must get
your emails in by Sunday, January 3rd at
midnight!
