"Saturday Night" mini-review + "The Shop Around The Corner": Films of 1940

This week, the boys head back to 1940 to discuss “The Shop Around The Corner” after setting up the film year and discussing some world events- Nylon stockings were invented this year! After Jeff gives his mini-review of “Saturday Night”, the Jason Reitman film about the making of the first episode of “Saturday Night Live”, the boys discuss the Ernst Lubitsch film, adapted from the 1936/1937 play Hungarian Perfumerie, which also inspired the musical She Loves Me and the film “You’ve Got Mail”. We also drink a lot, Dave gets mad at Thrifty, and Jeff confuses Superman and Captain America like a Beta.
