Guest month is truly in swing now as Lewis and Nick welcome Pro/Con's sports correspondent Jose (@ Guy42Mao) back onto the pod. Jose's pick "Escape to Victory" (1981) is a truly strange beast: a WWII period piece sports/war drama from John Huston. Solid direction, impressive production, and a memorably offbeat story can't offset a lackluster, meandering script. Pelé does some cool kicks, though.
