EP. 61 — The Deer Hunter

Paul & Amy take aim at Michael Cimino’s 1978 Vietnam War epic The Deer Hunter! They investigate the film’s controversial use of Russian Roulette, ask whether Robert De Niro’s character is too perfect, and try Unspooled’s first ever film-inspired food tasting segment. Plus: Rutanya Alda, who plays Angela in the film, talks about her journey from Latvia to Hollywood.
