Yowza, yowza, yowza... Our examination of 1969 continues with the first American film we've discussed this year, They Shoot Horses, Don't They? Directed by Sydney Pollack and based on a novel by Horace McCoy, the film stars Michael Sarrazin as Robert and Jane Fonda as Gloria, a pair who get thrown together in a marathon dance contest during the depression.
Scott Frank and Emily Intravia join Mike to discuss dance marathons, Red Buttons, and Arthur Fonzerelli.
