Rated R, just like this movie should have been (stupid production code).
The cynical and mean subject of the 67th Next 100 Project podcast is one of our favourites. Information is power. Burt Lancaster is remarkably good as the bullying gossip columnist, but Tony Curtis (just about) matches him. J.J. and Sidney are sharks who deserve every bad thing coming to them…but, man, they’ve got some great dialogue to say along the way. Guzzle down some Sparkplug Coffee as you delve into the Sweet Smell!
