Episode 115: A Blunt Instrument at the Sharp Utensil Society

Who's Afraid of Virginia WoolfThis week, dear listeners, we discuss the Liz Taylor/Richard Burton film adaptation of Who’s Afraid of Virginia Woolf?, which was released 50 years ago as of this June! Windy had never seen it before, so Melissa figured that it was about damned time.

If you would like to drink along, we recommend WATER. That’s right. We both drank WATER for this episode, which is probably a first in XanaCineHistory. But, seriously, this movie has a proximity intoxication effect. It is unwise to double-down on such power.
