Episode: The Apartment (1960) feat. Nate - The way it crumbles, cookie-wise
Description: Nate, a friend of the pod, brings satirical romcom and Best Picture winner The Apartment to The Goods for consideration. Dan, Brian, and Nate cringe at Jack Lemmon's snotty cold in the age of COVID, admire Shirley MacLaine's modern sensibility, and debate the storytelling merits of the film's dark turning point. Dan gushes over "Auld Lang Syne," Nate wishes for more black-and-white movies, and Brian praises Fred MacMurray's mensch-slimeball duality.
