The MOTM for February was chosen from the Pool of Academy Award Winning films. Best Picture was the Genre for this month and Dave Anderson of the “Free Kittens Movie Guide” suggested this detective thriller as the choice for our discussion. Of course the movie is more than just a procedural, as it tackles racism and cultural divides in the transitional year of 1967.
Howard Casner of “Pop Art” and Matthew Simpson from the “Awesome Friday Podcast” join us for a deep dive into this film that was a central part of the Hollywood revolution in the mid 1960s. We share our favorite scenes and personal histories with the movie, and give substantial time to “The Slap Heard Round the World”.
Do you like character actors? This movie has a plethora of secondary characters, portrayed by some of the most iconic faces of the 60s and 70s. Oh, it also features the biggest movie star of the era, Sidney Poitier and the winner of the Best Actor Award for this film Rod Steiger.
