Episode 054 - High Society and The Beguiled

It’s episode 054 of the Stinking Pause podcast. Scott’s choice of movies this week. First up, Scott and Charlie look at the birthday movie which celebrates the centenary of Frank Sinatra’s birth….High Society from 1956. A musical also featuring Bing Crosby, Grace Kelly and Louis Armstrong along with songs from the legendary Cole Porter. Our second movie is a Clint Eastwood movie directed by Don Siegel from 1971…The Beguiled. Not quite a western, more Southern Gothic (whatever that may be ?). We are also pleased to include audio feedback from Jim, one half of The Film Thugs and his account of his meeting with the legend that is James Ellroy. There is also a welcome return to Mark from The Good The Bad and the Odd podcast and his thoughts on both of the movies that we are reviewing in this episode.   You can find this and all of our previous episodes at stinkingpause.com Join the Facebook group… …and follow us on Twitter   @StinkingPause   All emails and mp3’s gratefully received at [email protected]   You can check out the marvellous Film Thugs podcast at   thefilmthugs.com And Mark’s equally marvellous podcast at   thegoodthebadandtheodd.com   And let’s not forget those fine chaps at Rochester Kino who tirelessly bring classic movies on the big screen to Medway.
