We made him watch 5 movies with us, and he can't take that time back! We forced him to watch the kung fu movie The Screaming Tiger, a wacko musical starring Desi Arnaz Jr and Zero Mostel called Marco, Streisand and Redford in The Way We Were, The Paper Chase, and ending the show with what could be the craziest movie we've seen so far on the podcast, Mike Nichols' assassination thriller The Day of the Dolphin.
