Paper Lion (Episode 187) - Hot Date with Dan & Vicky
from Hot Date with Dan and Vicky · host Hot Date with Dan and Vicky
Alan Alda plays George Plimpton in Paper Lion, the 1968 film based on Plimpton's book of the same title. The book and film chronicle his attempt at joining the Detroit Lions during pre-season training for a story in Sports Illustrated. Several real life football players appear as themselves in the film inlcuding Alex Karras (who starred two more times on film with Alda in Springtime and M*A*S*H*), Frank Gifford, Joe Schmidt, and Lem Barney. In the shortest Hot Date to date and after many technical snafus, Dan and Vicky discuss the film along with some recently seen. New horror Immaculate and Late Night with the Devil get the spotlight but also look for reviews for the new Ghostbusters, Godzilla x Kong, and the reality franchise Traitors on Peacock.
