Filmspotting #166: Paris, Je T'aime / Gun Crazy / Top 5 Actors We'd Cast In Our Movie

June 29: Much of the new collaborative film "Paris, Je T'aime" is, appropriately, in French. And if you haven't seen the film, Adam and Sam's review may sound a lot like watching a foreign language film... without subtitles. With 18 love stories in 18 Paris neighborhoods from 18+ writer/directors, a coherent conversation about "Paris" proved to be a difficult juggling act. But with a film that pits the Coen Brothers against Tom Tykwer and Alexander Payne against Alfonso Cuaron, it might just be a conversation worth navigating.

Also on the show: Listener Feedback, Massacre Theatre, the fourth movie in our Film Noir Marathon, "Gun Crazy," and the Top 5 Actors We'd Cast In Our Movie.
