Ep 03 - Jersey Devils Pt 03 & Night and the City

Stanislaus Zbyszko as Gregorius The Great in Night and the City

Instead of keeping a low profile, Mitchell winds up pickpocketing a man and crashing the back of his truck’s trailer into a parked car. Not ideal. Especially when said truck is carrying a dead body set for burial deep in the Pine Barrens. 

That’s the sort of behavior that attracts the law. And cops are the last thing Mitchell needs as his truck finally hits the highway...

For their movie discussion, Will and Chris are talking about one of their all time favorites! It’s time for Night and the City. Both films that call themselves Night and the City. The classic film noir from 1950 with Richard Widmark, Gene Tierney, and Mike Mazurki plus the remake with Robert DeNiro and Jessica Lange from 1992.  

And you’ll even get a fun dose of American History as they discuss the genesis of the movies, and director Jules Dassin’s perilous interactions with the House UnAmerican Activities Committee during the Red Scare.
