The Apostle (Robert Duvall)

And the Winner Should Have Been...

We're back and demonstrating that last week wasn't a fluke; it's another hour and twenty of cinematic podcast goodness just for you. (Yes, you.) This week mixes it up while still remaining true to our original remit; we discuss who should have won Best Actor at the 1998 Academy Awards. I (Bob) am pretty sure we agreed at the end of the podcast, but while editing, I realized Mark never actually says to whom he'd give the award.
Spoilers ahoy on the starboard bow!
