  • Summary

  • This week, the crew sits down with the oldest movie they've covered and discuss John Huston's odd meta parody, 1953's BEAT THE DEVIL! Discussion includes car crashes, wrestling matches between Truman Capote and Humphrey Bogart, cliffside freefalls, decade re-evaluation and so much more. Plus, we found out the 1950s were loaded with horse movies and racist westerns.
