Walter Mitty in 3 Flavors: The Quintessential Dreamer
Update: 2025-04-17
Description
In this episode we talk about the unforgettable stories of Walter Mitty -- in all its forms. We take a look at James Thurber’s original short story that's full of sharp humor; Danny Kaye’s imaginative 1947 adventure; then Ben Stiller’s visually beautiful and emotionally layered 2013 movie.
Each one tells a different kind of story about a daydreaming-man named Walter Mitty, but they all circle around the same question: what happens when imagination bumps up against real life?
All kinds of fun names and topics come up this episode like the famous face and voice of Boris Karloff and find out what a macguffin is according to George Lucas and Alfred Hitchcock!
