Summary
Episode 153: Our pick for 1953 is Sam Fuller's PICKUP ON SOUTH STREET, a hard-boiled noir thriller that doubles as a sharp critique of 1950s America, examining the paranoia, moral compromise, and social damage wrought by Red Scare hysteria through the collision of petty criminals in the gritty NYC underground.
