We wrap July with Barton Fink (1991); a film that was perhaps second only to Trust (1990) in it's influence on a teen Keithy.
Turturro, Goodman, Buscemi, Mahoney, Shaloub -- there's lots to enjoy about this movie.
Plus we talk: Holocaust/Nazi/WWII fetishism in the US, the Hollywood trap, and Cradle Will Rock (1999). Plus our reflection on this month's selections.
