4.6-The Devil's Holiday with John DiLeo

Send us Fan MailToday's episode is my conversation about the 1930 film The Devil's Holiday. I'm joined by John DiLeo who previously appeared on the podcast talking about his latest book, Not Even Nominated, and we talk about several instances of overreactions throughout the film, how several scenes feel very out of place in the film, and how much Nancy Carroll drives the film with her performance.You can watch The Devil's Holiday online on YouTube and be sure to check out John's author page on Amazon.Other films mentioned in this episode include:Ferris Bueller's Day Off directed by John HughesThe Trespasser directed by Edmund GouldingFollow Through directed by Laurence Schwab and Lloyd CorriganMen Must Fight directed by Edgar SelwynAn American Tragedy directed by Josef von SternbergA Place in the Sun directed by George StevensDinner at Eight directed by George CukorStolen Heaven directed by George AbbottBroken Lullaby (aka The Man I Killed) directed by Ernst LubitschGone With the Wind directed by Victor FlemingLady for a Day directed by Frank CapraWatch on the Rhine directed by Herman ShumlinLittle Women directed by George CukorGreed directed by Erich von StroheimAll Quiet on the Western Front directed by Lewis MilestoneCasablanca directed by Michael CurtizThe Dance of Life directed by John Cromwell and A.
