On this episode of The Cromcast, we host a cinema night in celebration of hardboiled cinema for our hardboiled season. We chose to watch "Mildred Pierce" starring Joan Crawford, Luke did some extra credit and read the story by James Cain and watched the Kate Winslet miniseries as well!
This is a sordid tale of murder, capitalism, the patriarchy, and desire all wrapped up in a box. If you haven't seen it yet, we agree with the Library of Congress that it is "culturally, historically, or aesthetically significant" and you oughta let your eyes enjoy it.
