100. "Dunkirk" (2017)

This is it! World War II Movie Night's 100th episode! Some celbratory plaudits are followed by a big announcement. As for the movie, it's one that was planned for the 100th episide before even the first one was recorded, 2017's "Dunkirk." Christopher Nolan parlayed the cash and clout from his Batman trilogy to bring his passion project into existence: a multi-layered take on one of the lesser-known stories from the war: the then-Allies being pushed to the sea in the Battle of France, and the frantic attempts to evacuate them. So sit back and enjoy the biggest milestone a podcast can have!... asides include many thoughts on having a podcast, and the importance of not mixing up Tom Hardy and Tom Brady.
