The boys are back in town (the boys are back in town)! That's right! Rip down the caution tape! Mop up the chalk outlines! The Balcony is back open for business and boy howdy do we have an episode for you! The golden years of Hollywood are thank friggin christ drawing to a close and the 70s are right there... right there! It's just a few more weeks of goofy, big budget bullshit and then it's Midnight Cowboy times. But that's five years away. Right now, we need to visit the first of three musicals that win best picture in the middle 60s and we're doing it in high style with a movie that looks better than it is and sounds better than it should, My Fair Lady, the timeless tell of a groomer grooming a girl in a very literal sense (they wash her... more than once). It's full of songs only your parents could love and costumes that are admittedly extravagant. It's just there. Sean likes it enough. Bill doesn't. I don't know what to tell you. We're rusty and it's free. Go listen to Pod Save America or something you namby pamby babies.
