The Monday Afternoon Movie's latest season continues. Our featured film today stars a couple of legendary icons of the screen, big and small. It's also completely wacky and an all over the place bargain bin James Bond clone.&amp;nbsp;  The 1972 film, starring Bette Davis and Robert Wagner, centers on Madame Sin, a wealthy, brilliant, and deeply manipulative woman who runs a private organization that trains people to be elite criminals. She recruits individuals with specialized skills\u2014pilots, scientists, strategists\u2014and molds them into a secret force she can control. Her operation is polished and almost glamorous, but underneath it\u2019s all about power and domination. &amp;nbsp;A former British intelligence officer (Wagner) who\u2019s been burned by the system, is lured into Madame Sin\u2019s world. At first, the offer looks tempting: money, prestige, and a chance to use his talents again. But he soon realizes that Madame Sin\u2019s ambitions go far beyond crime for profit. She wants leverage over governments and plans a massive, high-stakes scheme that could destabilize international politics.  Joining Sam Pancake today is actor, writer, and 90-second historian Brandon Johnston.
