Lucie Lamouroux

Just wanted to thank you for this podcast. I watched Sunset Boulevard yesterday and was blown away. What a masterpiece! So I looked on the internet to check if there were any podcast that talked about it and I found you guys and you're awesome. You really make me want to watch old movies even though I used to be reluctant to. Thanks :)
