Description

1968 is the year of the genre film! "2001: A Space Odyssey" and "Planet of the Apes" pioneered in science fiction, "Rosemary's Baby" is a horror classic, "Night of the Living Dead" practically invented the zombie trope, and "Once Upon a Time in the West" ranks among the greatest Westerns ever made. We're also in an era of independent film, with directors like George Romero and John Cassavetes leading the way. But in a year of beloved classics, which one film best stands the test of time? 

Join the braaaainy Rachel Schaevitz and Aaron Keck as they discuss the year in cinema, realism in dialogue, gaslighting, monoliths, harmonicas, the bizarre life of Roman Polanski, and Stanley Kubrick's connection to Monty Python - and then we dig into the data and the numbers (and our expert panel votes) to identify the best film of 1968. 

The nominees are Faces, Night of the Living Dead, Once Upon a Time in the West, Rosemary's Baby, and 2001: A Space Odyssey. Who wins the Moonlight?
