We perk things up a little bit this week with an action/adventure war caper starring Ol' Blue Eyes himself, Frank Sinatra. Yes, it's Von Ryan's Express, a 1965 film with lots of practical effects and stunt work that is, unfortunately, mostly a lost art these days. The guys also discuss Sinatra as an actor, characters that keep screwing up, the goofy tone and music choices and much more. Also: MORE TRAINS.
Next week: Bosnia!
