with Segismundo (@MrSegismund0)This episode of Bistro Californium concerns four movies linked by recurring actors and writers and concerning class, snobbery, incest, friendship, sexual rivalry and crime. We talk about the first of Harold Pinter's three collaborations with blacklisted director Joseph Losey, the marvellous chemistry of Michael Caine and Laurence Olivier in Joseph L. Mankiewicz's Sleuth, and the romance of the French Riviera.
