Picnic (Episode 147) Hot Date with Dan & Vicky

1956's Picnic, adapted from the Pulitzer and Tony award winning stage play by William Inge, gave director Joshua Logan the chance to realize the grand picnic of the title on actual locations in Kansas.  But the filming was not without it's headaches.  With two insecure lead actors, tornadoes that threatened to shut production down, and thousands of extras to corrall, Picnic could have been mess.  But it went on to be a box office success and win two Academy Awards.  Dan and Vicky discuss the classic drama along with some recently seen selections including Texas Chainsaw Massacre 2022, The Batman, 1960's Flesh and the Fiends, Hulu horror Fresh, Ti West's X, and Dexter: The New Blood.
