In case you didn’t know, the holidays aren’t easy and nothing was easy about recording this episode. Between stomach viruses, sick kids, busted travel plans and stressful holiday parties, The Cine-Files had to work extra hard to record this episode with our special and generous guest, animation executive Michael Ross. Not going to lie, this episode went a little off the rails but Steve and John, both needed a good laugh and they 100% got it. We hop you will too.

We had so much fun in our last conversation with Scott Mantz about Star Trek: The Motion Picture that we thought it would be fun to revisit our very first episode with him as a guest way back in February of 2017, Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan. This is a seminal episode in the history of The Cine-Files and John and I have a great time reminiscing about it in our brand, new introduction.  Don’t forget to support The Cine-Files at https://www.patreon.com/TheCineFiles and purchase any film we feature at https://www.cine-files.net Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/TheCineFilesPod/?ref=bookmarks John @therochasays Steve @srmorris The Cine-Files Twitter @cine_files Instagram thecinefilespodcast --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/thecine-files/message Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/thecine-files/supportOur Sponsors:* Check out Hims: https://hims.com/CINEFILES* Check out TruDiagnostic and use my code CINEFILES for a great deal: https://www.trudiagnostic.com* Check out Washington Red Raspberries: https://redrazz.orgSupport this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/the-cine-files/donationsAdvertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy

There is so much to discuss in On the Waterfront; the feeling of betrayal and what could have been, the meaning of loyalty and when one must abandon it, The communist party and the blacklist, and, of course, simple, plain, human courage and it's cost. John and Steve have a great time exploring these themes and many others in part two of their discussion of Elia Kazan's, On the Waterfront.
