Emily Kubincanek makes her welcomed and triumphant return to Extra Milestone, and this week’s selections are among the most varied yet! We begin by celebrating the 95-year anniversary of Sergei Eisenstein’s magnum opus Battleship Potemkin, a film more fundamentally significant than almost any other when it comes to the art form of editing and propaganda storytelling. After that, we take a lighthearted and melancholy stroll into the world of Henry Koster’s Harvey, a rich and complex comedy featuring one of the best performances by the great James Stewart. Finally, we get to the bottom of Jonathan Lynn’s Clue, a cult-classic murder mystery that neither of us had seen before, and were delighted to discover was great!

    Great episode!!!

    Just wanted to follow up regarding Sam’s low-key statement that he has played the boardgame of Clue in the past. Don’t let his modesty fool you. Sam is wicked good at Clue, virtually unbeatable. The best part is at the end of the game, after he nonchalantly correctly sets forth the winning solution, he tells you, and all of the other players, exactly what cards you are holding in your hand. Very discouraging…
