Nick Langdon joins us this week to tinker and tailor another intriguing double feature discussion. We check out Funeral in Berlin (1966), directed by Guy Hamilton, and The Soldier (1982), directed by James Glickenhaus. We'll dive deep into Cold War lore and the joy of "shabby" spy stories, while exploring the usual array of oblique asides such as gratuitous blood squibs, phallic bollards, Uzi pirouettes and Klaus Kinski's manic desire to steal the tightest ski pants in the Alps. We will be announcing a Spoiler Territory section for both films, so if you haven't seen them before you listen, you can nevertheless avoid spoilers for Funeral in Berlin by skipping ahead to the 1:08:13 mark, and for The Soldier by skipping ahead to 1:41:26.
