On the 16th episode of Shite & Sound, Finn and Uther watch 'The Colour of Pomegranates’ (1969), an abstract and beautifully designed look at the life of an ancient Armenian poet, and 'Total Eclipse' (1995), the only movie where Leonardo DiCaprio tops David Thewlis. Good and bad approaches to adapting poetry to film. Gaslighting in children’s films. Who allowed DiCaprio to keep working after this? Uther continues his feud with Blank Check while Finn is unsure about some casting choices.
