Episode Details

For our sixty-third episode, we’re joined by film historian and commentary producer Will Dodson for a discussion of the audio commentary for Fred Zinnemann’s landmark 1952 real-time western “High Noon”. Amongst the things discussed: Gary Cooper’s legendary extramarital streak, trains running over cameras, the world-destroying HUAC hearings, Lee Van Cleef’s past as an accountant, lettuce farmer film financiers, the possible secret origin of the Wilhelm Scream, and so much more.

Ryan’s Recommendations: “Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs” (1937), “Fantasia” (1940), and “Cinderella” (1950)
