Episode 13 Notes

Clint Eastwood’s Unforgiven (1992) won Oscars for Best Picture, Best Actor, Best Director and Best Film Editing
Flags of Our Fathers (2006) and Letters From Iwo Jima (2006) both tell the story of the battle of Iwo Jima from opposite sides
Catharsis is from the Greek, meaning “purification” or “cleansing”
I accidentally confused Terry Brooks and Terry Pratchett—oops
The novelization of 2001: A Space Odyssey (1968) was written concurrently with the feature film
Do not confuse this film with Sniper (1993) starring Tom Berenger
American Sniper opens wide in the USA on January 16, 2015
