Episode 171: The Movie Nerd on Trial for Manslaughter

Morning Meeting

This week, Linda Wells tells us what you need to know about looking great in 2024 and why everyone seems to be very nosy these days. Then John von Sothen joins us from Paris with his report on a flamboyant Frenchman who rose to fame for saving and restoring lost film classics—but then found himself on trial for manslaughter. And finally, speaking of classic films, Josh Karp looks at the making of The Long Goodbye. Directed by Robert Altman and starring Elliott Gould, this reimagining of the Philip Marlowe character came out 50 years ago, and it set the stage for Chinatown and other modern-era noir classics.
