If you haven’t been able to tell after 90 episodes, the boys of Cinephile Hissy Fit podcast, sponsored and supported by the Ruminations Radio Network, like to talk. Give them the opportunity and they would probably talk during an entire movie to tell anyone who would listen what they think. For a new venture, the Cinephile Hissy Fit did just that. They picked a movie and covered the whole thing credits to credits.

For their 91st episode, two expat critics, two jilted dads, and two school teachers in a beautiful friendship, Will Johnson and Don Shanahan , might not amount to a hill of beans, but, by golly, the can talk. This is a special treat for you folks where our two hosts have recorded a full-length commentary track for “Casablanca.” The 1942 classic celebrates its 80th anniversary and it’s Don’s #1 movie of all-time. That love and more comes up on this recording. Yes, that’s us looking at you, kid. Come for the shared challenge and tirade and stay for the mutual love and respect for the fun movies encapsulate.
