Episode 64: Vincente Minelli

We are back together again, and this time, we have one of the best Chicago film critics as our guest.  Sergio Mims joins us to discuss our first director of musical classics such as MEET ME IN ST. LOUIS and AN AMERICAN IN PARIS. There is a whole lot to say about the great Vincente Minelli. In addition to some Christmas goodies dispersed throughout the episode (be sure to stay to the end if you dare), we also touch upon Minelli's versatile filmography later in the show.  Before that, though, we have discussions about some of the best films of 2013 including AMERICAN HUSTLE, NEBRASKA, 12 YEARS A SLAVE, a differing opinion on INSIDE LLEWYN DAVIS, as well as a couple of recent documentaries too!  0:00 - 9:53 - Intro 9:54 - 10:55 - What We Watched Song10:56 - 1:14:41 - What We Watched This Week1:14:42 - 1:16:38 - PSA1:16:39 - 2:15:28 - Freeflowing Minelli discussion 2:15:29 - 2:25:24 - Denouement2:25:25 - 2:29:32 - Bonus Christmas Gift! In about two weeks, we will be recording our annual Best Of The Year show!  Please send us your top ten list by leaving us a voicemail to play on the show at 224-366-9528.
