From the fertile imagination of Terry Gilliam comes The Adventures of Baron Munchausen from 1989 but it wasn't without it's share of near catastrophes. A Ballooning budget, dangerous working situations and a regime change at Columbia Pictures nearly scuttled Gilliam's attempt to put the much embellished exploits of German adventurer Hieronymus Karl Friedrich Freiherr von Münchhausen on screen.  After completing the film, Columbia released it in Germany first and then dumped it into a few US theaters.  It barely made a dent at the box office but was championed by critics, recognized at the Academy Awards and has since enjoyed a strong cult following.  

Dan and Vicky discuss the fantasy epic along with some of the things they've been seeing and reading recently.  Notably, Ready Or Not, Lawrence of Arabia, John Wick 3, It Stains the Sand Red, Big Little Lies, Euphoria, Aladdin 2019 and Escape Room.  Vicky tells us all about her Florida getaway and Dan regales us with tales of herniated discs and backstage shenanigans.
