1 rich Libsyn https://www.libsyn.com 90 600 Would you like us to tell you the little story of Arlo and Paul? A-R-L-O! It was with this pretentious film buff that a That Was Then episode on Charles Laughton’s sole directorial feature, 1955’s The Night of the Hunter, was chosen. P-A-U-L! Do you think he’s apt to enjoy a cinephile fave? Now listen, and we’ll tell you the story of Gobbledygeek. Those co-hosts, dear hearts, is always a-disagreein’ and a-bickerin’, one agin t’other. Now hear ‘em! Ol’ Paul, he’s a-doubtin’ the perverse noir his buddy won’t shut up about it, and it looks like Arlo’s rec is a goner. But wait a minute! With Robert Mitchum’s towering and ridiculous performance as a murderous preacher, Arlo’s a-winnin’! Yessirree, it’s Arlo’s love of Looney Tunes gothic horror that’s won, and ol’ Paul has found something to admire in one more cinematic classic! &amp;nbsp; NEXT: it’s gonna be a hot time at the Smokestack twins’ juke in Ryan Coogler’s vampire musical Sinners.
