Josh Arnold on classic films, romantic movies and why “Primate” crossed a line

Worth Your Time! with Kristi Lee and Rob Shumaker

About
Josh Arnold joins Kristi Lee and Dr. Rob Shoemaker for a wide-ranging movie conversation, from black-and-white classics to romantic favorites. They talk about “The Best Years of Our Lives,” “The Philadelphia Story,” “It’s a Wonderful Life,” “Casablanca,” “When Harry Met Sally,” “Breakfast at Tiffany’s,” “Out of Africa” and “Once,” plus the reality of how performances and scenes hit differently over time. Then the tone shifts to a debate over the chimp thriller “Primate,” including what the movie gets right and wrong, how rabies and plot rules are handled, and why depictions of apes in entertainment can shape public attitudes.
