Listen "1956: 80 Days in Ten Commandments (feat. Kevin Weir)"
Episode Synopsis
In 1956, two movies take their sweet time with two famous stories. Our Best Picture takes us Around the World in 80 Days (and 200 cameos) as this first film version of Jules Verne's novel loads the screen with exotic locales, familiar faces, and long, LONG shots of scenery. But 'tis but a blip next to our Box Office Champion, As Cecil B.

Join us for the pilgrimage! Find all of our episodes and the rest of Writing Therapy Productions' various entertainments at www.writingtherapyproductions.com
