Beskrivelse

We wrap up our look into the 20th Academy Awards but not before we have a chance to check our pulse as we encounter the high strangeness surrounding Christmas. Afterward Ben and Kit encounter the antisemitism of 1947... not sure much has changed since then but maybe there is something to be learned from our last two nominees. Our following films are... - The Bishop's Wife Crossfire Gentleman's Agreement - Don't forget to like, subscribe, and hit those notification buttons for future episodes!  If you enjoy what you've heard, please share this episode with a friend or two and leave us a comment that you've done so!
