In this episode, we desperately try to stave off the sophomore jinx with a comprehensive look at the life and work of George Roy Hill (1921-2002), who helmed classics like the western Butch Cassidy & the Sundance Kid, caper film The Sting, the flapper-era musical Thoroughly Modern Mille, the cult classic Slap Shot, and the adaptation of John Irving's novel The World According to Garp. Join us as we revisit these works and more in the spectrum-spanning catalogue of the erudite, stingy, and perverted Hill.
