MOVIE REVIEWS!
This week, a behind-the-curtain, informal version of our weekly session with film critic Don Morton as he calls-in from his friend Fletcher’s house somewhere in Portland, Oregon.
As usual, Don gives us his must-see and must-must miss for the radio segment, but then after we finish the radio segment, we take a little time to ~chat~ about some of the other movies now showing in Tokyo.
It’s a little different this week, we hope you like it. And, if you do, please share it with your friends. Thanks!
