After a slight delay the thirty eigth episode of the Film Pigeons podcast has arrived.
Thankfully, its a doozy. This week Andrew, Eddie and Mark head into the annals of American and Oscar (both films won Best Picture) history as we commiserate with wildlife in our review of Kevin Costner's Dances With Wolves and examine the geriatric "friendship" that develops between Morgan Freeman and Jessica Tandy in Bruce Beresford's Driving Miss Daisy. We also bust out the plastic slipcovers and piles of newspaper
from the 40s in celebration of our Top 4 Old Person Performances.
Sara's abscence allows Eddie to go hog wild as he reveals his ideal weekend while Mark and Andrew list the best Oscar winners from the nineties and posit some alternative winners.

On the thirty-sixth episode of the Film Pigeons podcast Sara is off book learnin' and Andrew, Eddie and Mark take the opportunity to let the testosterone run rampant as we review two vehicular quasi-classics. First, we ride shotgun wtih Tom Cruise as he pursues Nicole Kidman and some kind of shiny racing trophy in Tony Scott's Days of Thunder. Then, we partake in the ultra-violence that only a screen pairing of Quentin Tarantino and Kurt Russel can bring as we review Death Proof. Finally, in honor of all the axle grease and generally badassery we reveal out Top 4 bad-ass male leads.
In our spare time Andrew hosts a hastily constructed bit of movie trivia, Mark and Eddie engage in more sexual puns than Bob Saget in an animated penguin film and Eddie reveals his disturbing fascination with the film Whip It.
