Long Way Home making its way onto my Kindle. Great episode!

Did Bret call “ace in the hole” billy wilder’s first movie? What an unusual boner. Totally wrong, 10 movie he directed after he’d already won Oscars in directing (long weekend) and writing (long weekend and sunset blvd). Also possible i misheard.

No, you didn't mishear. It was a boner in an opening written so quickly because Kirk had just died the night before Cameron was recording the next day and I put aside something else and hurriedly wrote that out. Adam? I think it's too late to edit it. Being a Billy Wilder fan I can't quite believe it myself.

That’s cool! Hopefully that “something else” makes it to the pod or a new book!

Appreciated your thoughtful tribute to Kirk Douglas, Bret. Two great Kirk Douglas/Vincent Minelli films are currently streaming on the Criterion Channel. The excellent (and pleasurably camp) The Bad and the Beautiful and the underrated Two Weeks in Another Town. These are two of the best "movies about movies" and somewhat underseen today, especially Two Weeks, which has gorgeous color photography. Minelli has a visual dynamism that can support the big style of Douglas. For all the scenery-chewing, there is a certain psychological rawness to Kirk Douglas that seems ahead of his time. So long, Spartacus. Thanks for all the movies.

This is what a man sounds like who has spent the better part of his life in great pain and shame. If he finds the strength to carry his past and rises as his own man, I am actually more curious about his next autobiography.

Dan McGuire

I've been in prison and would have been more interested in hearing about that than what he thought about various actors in movies.

James Dardis

Great episode. He is correct: shooting any drug makes it almost a completely different drug. That's why it is so insanely rare that you find someone who stops shooting drugs and goes back to snorting/smoking.

I don't give a shit about the Danielovitch Klan. Michael was OK. Katy Jurado had them pegged. Fuck people with a zillion dollars that "suffer." Another ex-junkie that is retarded, like Tom Sizemore.

Agree. Shooting is AWESOME! And medical/clean. No doctor says, "Snort two of these and call me in the morning." Still, shooting coke is rough because it doesn't last very long. You turn yourself into a pin cushion pretty quick. Heroin, though, lasts... :) They sell needles in dollar stores or wherever in Mexico. No prescription needed...and there are no needle addicts in Mexico. Mexico makes great smack, but you can't get it in Mexico. If someone is caught selling smack or meth to Mexicans, they will be killed by the bosses. That stuff is export-only. Makes sense.

Antonio Primavera

All of this talk about "flu" or "flu season" is ominous in retrospect.
