Episode 82: Nobody Wants That Much Dostoyevsky: Part 1

from Xanadu Cinema Pleasure Dome · host Windy Bowlsby and Melissa Kaercher

We return triumphant, dear listeners, with the first part of a massive two-part episode about Akira Kurosawa! That’s right! Strap on your oversized samurai sword and keep track of your gun, because we’re going to get into the nitty gritty of Kurosawa’s career. For this epic undertaking, we are joined once again by movie ubernerd and fellow podcaster, Noel Thingvall! If you would like to drink along, we recommend either Avalon Cabernet Sauvignon or Apothic Red, because they both start with A (for Akira!) and because they are tasty. Or, if you are the non-drinking sort, try Cherry Pomegranate Super Chill Ice, which is what Noel was drinking for this event. Show notes behind the cut!
