The General (AFI Top 100 Films #18) - a podcast by Ira Heinichen, Joshua McClenney

This film is almost 100 years old and it brings the action non-stop. Keaton can certainly construct a breath-taking gag . . . but can he deliver a story with the pathos that his better-known contemporary could? We watch and discuss!
