We Take Our Face... Off in Episode 299!

8/4/2025

Unbelievably handsome!

Much to Doug's chagrin, Charlie chose the 1966 film Seconds as this installment of the Sci-Fi Shuffle. Sorry Doug! At least you got to experience the DVD cover you talk about in the episode.

If you'd like to see what David Sterritt wrote for Criterion about this film, you can. But we're not sure why our opinion isn't enough for you! While you're there, there is also this must-read essay about the cinematographer James Wong Howe. And to confirm, yes, the Criterion says the audio is mono.

Paul mentioned Dark Passage in the episode, so educate yourself (as Adam and Charlie had to)!

Kudos to Doug for bringing this heartwarming story from the Make-a-Wish Foundation to our attention!
