Episode 17: The Public Enemy
This week, we watch the pre-Hayes Code pre-noir gangster classic, The Public Enemy! We highly recommend you watch the film before listening to the episode, because it’s a great gangster flick. This film is currently available for streaming rental on iTunes, Amazon Video, Vudu, and Microsoft, and is also available on DVD. (It’s also currently available for free on YouTube, but the sound on that copy is pretty lousy.) Join us on February 7th for our episode on Elevator to the Gallows!
