Is this one of the most realistic portrayals of romance in film history? Brendan and Jason debate that this week during their discussion of David Lean’s “Brief Encounter” (#2 on the list). They also talk about the subplot that nicely mirrors the main love story, a musical cue that inspired a very popular ballad about loneliness, Lean taking shots at melodrama of the time and much more. Plus: The guys delve a little bit into the life of the playwright/screenwriter Noel Coward and his near-assassination.
The guys also roll the dice to find out what they’ll be watching next week. Join us, won’t you?
