The Secret Life of Walter Mitty. Mitty is an anonymous everyman who uses fantasy as a way to escape from his… important and creatively rewarding job at LIFE magazine?

American Hustle. It’s less about Abscam than the bad hair decisions made by men in the 70s. Bale has an elaborate comb over, Cooper sports a self-administered perm, and Renner tops off his head with an impressive pompadour. It’s a regular rogue’s gallery of unfortunate hairstyles.
The Wolf of Wall Street. Even though Martin Scorsese’s stock soared with Hugo, creatively he now finds himself in a bear market with The Wolf of Wall Street.
Thanks for listening! We’ll be back in three weeks.
