Show notes

Also known as "How to Get Ahead in Hollywood," Joel and Ethan Coen's Barton Fink proved a critical darling but a box office failure. The film stars John Turturro as the playwright for the Common Man and John Goodman as his neighbor at the Hotel Earle.

Rob St. Mary and Filmwax Radio's Adam Schartoff return to The Projection Booth to discuss the film.

This episode features the second part of our interview with actor Christopher Murney.
