S6E31 - #70: Dog Day Afternoon (1975)

Show Notes We’re robbing a bank this week as we watched Sydney Lumet’s 1975 biopic Dog Day Afternoon. Al Pacino is magnetic as the “mastermind” of a failed bank heist. Queer identity, the poverty cycle, and the absolute boneheaded-ness of police are on display in this humanist heist film.   Recommendations: Light and Magic (Disney +); American Horror Story (Hulu) – the latest season   Next up: The Wild Bunch (1969)                                                                                            Email us at [email protected] Twitter: @latecomerspod Find Amity @ www.amityarmstrong.com and @AmityArmstrong on Twitter Our Facebook group is here for those who consent: https://www.facebook.com/groups/1754020081574479/   This podcast is powered by Pinecast.
