Hey Oscars & Movie Fans — we’re proud to present a Bonus Episode that explores 3 great, HIDDEN GEM films from 1964 that we briefly mentioned during our 1965 - MY FAIR OSCAR episode.  

Each film was nominated for something — but we really didn’t talk much about them…until now.  If you’re anything like us — we guarantee you’ll dig at least one if not more of these films which include:  TOPKAPI - the inspiration for the most iconic scene in the Mission Impossible franchise.  SEANCE ON A WET AFTERNOON - a creepy, psychological thriller that will stay with you long after it’s over.  And THE VISIT, a twisted little movie starring Ingrid Bergman and Anthony Quinn that takes a turn we guarantee you won’t see coming.  

Enjoy our discussion on these movies and more and we’ll be back with another full OSCARS episode next week!
