Episode description

Lee, Daniel and Paul are back this week to take a look at one of the least-disputed classics from the start of the talkies: Fritz Lang's "M" from 1931. A film with decades of scholarship and critical analysis behind it is a daunting task, but a fairly in-depth discussion is drawn from it, as well as the little-known 1951 American remake. They also discuss what they've watched, which spirals off into a few tangents, as usual. Featured Music: "In the Hall of the Mountain King" by Edvard Grieg.
