Film Pigeons Episode 28: Control Room, The Candidate, Top 4 Political Movies

This week on the Film Pigeons podcast we see the return of Eddie as he joins Sara, Andrew and Mark in the proverbial smoky back corridors of our political system in their reviews of Jehane Noujaim's Control Room and Michael Ritchie's The Candidate. We also hit the campaign trail hard as we reveal out Top 4 Political Movies.

In between the madness we discuss Joe Pesci (or, as Eddie puts it, Joe Pepsi) in Casino and Andrew proposes a new democratic state that would finally give Eddie a reason to vote. Finally, Mark steps out of the Bed, Bath and Beyond lingerie section long enough to best his own record for futility in Sara's movie trivia.
