His Girl Friday – Still Untitled: The Adam Savage Project – 5/5/20
We have a special guest this week as Adam’s mom joins us for a spoilercast discussion of the 1940 classic film His Girl Friday! We talk about the fast-paced dialogue and cinematography of the classic screwball comedy, and how it compares to The Philadelphia Story. Plus, Adam has started wearing a shop apron while building in the cave, and we discuss the surprise in finding new points of view with the objects and workflows we take for granted. Don’t forget that Mother’s Day is this Sunday!

What happened to the Mikey and Nicky spoilercast? I was looking forward to it!
The Fountainhead with Gary Cooper (1949)
In addition to the “looks like Ralph Bellamy”, Cary Grant makes a joke about his real name. “Listen, the last man that said that to me was Archie Leach, just a week before he cut his throat.”
hunt for the wilder people is a good movie to watch.
Will…. great background image from “Howl’s Moving Castle”, so lovely.
Watch The Baron of Arizona, starring Vincent Price, who said it was his favorite part, based on a true story
Just a heads up–I watched this on Amazon Prime and the version I saw, which is the default version for the service, is a poor transfer with strange frequent audio drop outs. There is another version on Prime which is supposedly better though I haven’t checked it out (look for the version with the black and white screencap that says DigiComTV and NOT the one with the poster with Rosalind Russell in a yellow dress).
Have you ever watched a mini series called the lost room https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Lost_Room
