Splash (1984), The Shape of Water (2017), Mr. Peabody and the Mermaid (1948). This week, Janet, John, (and Pen) explore three amazing films all swimming in the same subject pool— can you fall in love with a sentient being in the water— better yet, can they fall in love with you? This under the sea romance film craze started with an actor who was the most beloved 1930's & 40's movie detective ever, soon Tom Hanks would pick up the gauntlet 40 years later and be equally inspired to give deep sea loving a go before the gender flip gets switched, in the 2017 multiple-Oscar winning film where love is still as equally fishy and mute as the films before it!

Kingdom of Fraud
It’s the unlikeliest of criminal partnerships: a devout polygamist from an insular Utah sect joining forces with a shadowy Armenian tycoon from LA. The result - a billion dollar fraud conspiracy. In Kingdom of Fraud, investigative reporter Michele McPhee traces the origins of the extraordinary alliance between Jacob Kingston and Levon Termendzhyan. Together, the two men trigger the largest tax investigation in American history and weave around themselves a web of dirty cops, influential political relationships and transnational money laundering. All this is set against the backdrop of Jacob Kingston’s clan – The Order. A powerful and secretive polygamist organization in Salt Lake City. To whom Jacob is desperate to prove his worth.
