  • Lions, Towers & Shields 115: Gene Kelly's Guns
    Mar 9 2025
    Greatest musical of all time, you say? Plenty of people would agree. Stanley Donen and Gene Kelly co-direct Kelly, Donald O’Connor and Debbie Reynolds through a delightful Comden and Gteen score, not to mention dance numbers that have achieved legendary status. For anyone who admires clever, energetic film choreography, it’s a joy to watch. For a fan of classic film, there’s an homage to the transition between silent and talking movie. That happened barely 20 years before this film was made, which is kind of bonkers to think about. The episode title is a callback. It’s what we do!

    Shelly Brisbin with Nathan Alderman, David Almeida, David J. Loehr and Micheline Maynard.

    Even when we like episodes, Brian can’t stand Sorkin’s titles. This is no exception. Dana’s going snorkeling, until she isn’t. We wonder if anyone truly LOVES snorkeling. Dan enlists Jeremy as the world’s unlikeliest wingman.
