Odd Man Out (Episode 39) - Hot Date with Dan and Vicky

We talk Odd Man Out, the classic 1947 British thriller from Third Man director Carol Reed.  It stars James Mason as Johnny McQueen, the leader of an Irish revolutionary group who ends up running for his life after a botched robbery attempt.  His love interest is played by Kathleen Ryan and the eccentric artist he runs into on his journey is Robert Newton.  There's Hot Date talk of Irish accents, rich production design, the beauty of Robert Krasker's cinematography and the eccentric and eclectic acting.   We also catch up with where Dan and Vicky have been and what they've seen.  Vicky talks about her family trip to Florida and Dan his Halloween week adventures.  Horror gore-meister Lucio Fulci enters the discussion again as does the Showtime series Penny Dreadful.  Recent big screen talk veers to Dan Brown's Inferno, horror sequel Ouija: Origin of Evil, and the Emily Blunt starring The Girl on the Train.  And then there's the controversial Walking Dead season 7 premiere -- Dan and Vicky have definite thoughts on the show and the backlash.  Listen for some great 1947 tunes that play throughout the podcast. Don't be the Odd Man Out.  Listen now to Hot Date 39 and leave us some feedback on our iTunes page.
