BACK TO SCHOOL! We're watching two movies about teachers and students and politics on campus. Representing the arthouse, it’s the 1969 Maggie Smith tour de force The Prime of Miss Jean Brodie, based on the novel by Muriel Spark. Representing the mainstream, it’s the 1994 campus comedy PCU starring Jeremy Piven and directed by Hart Bochner. Which movie will win and enter the canon? Which will lose and enter the trash canon and we can't watch it again for the rest of our lives? Listen to find out!
