In a time where heroes are seen as caped crusaders and colorful costumed fighters, it's rare that a real life figure gets an opportunity to shine on the big screen. Even harder still is it to take a man known for something as devastating and tragic as war, and praise him not for his merit on the battlefield but rather for his character. Hence the reason why Sergeant York continues to be such a moving and inspiring film over 80 years after it's release. Join us as we talk the charm of Gary Cooper, the perfect scoring of Max Steiner, and the story of a true American hero in Sergeant York.

!941 is a great year for movies! But not every film nominated this year can be wonderful. Perhaps this story of preacher, William Spence is the example this year? In a year where Citizen Kane made it's way into the world, a movie like One Foot in Heaven that received just a single nomination (best picture) seems to be lacking what it takes to hold it's own. Listen more to find out if it at least holds up after over 80 years.

Ever find yourself pleasantly surprised by what you think will be a mediocre movie? The easiest way to do that is to watch a movie you don't know was written by the great Billy Wilder! The charm of Charles Boyer, the sweet innocence of Olivia de Havilland, and a wonderfully written screenplay make for perhaps one of the most underrated Wilder penned films we've seen.

If you found yourself in the afterlife before it was your time to go, would you revel in the chance to play with the cosmic reality that is now yours? Or would you try to get back to Earth to finish that big project you started last week? Guess which one sounds more like Robert Montgomery in Here Comes Mr. Jordan! A wildly unique story for 1941, but does it do enough with it's themes of reincarnation and angels? Or does it play too safe in the world that it has laid out for itself?

A young artist was given the chance of a lifetime. Full creative control, a tremendous budget, authority to hire whoever he pleased, and he worked magic. Citizen Kane is on every major Top Films list, and today we determine whether it is deserving of that highest of praises. Without a doubt, Orson Welles, Herman Mankiewicz, and Gregg Toland created something the world had never seen before and arguably, has not seen since!

Adventure films have mostly faded out of existence in the modern age. Especially films like Trader Horn, who's production could be described as nothing short of nightmarish. Between disease and death plaguing the crew, to disgusting and cruel behavior towards the animals in the film, Trader Horn is a harsh look into early adventure films. But does it's historical significance make it worth sitting through? Listen and learn!

Lewis Milestone is one of the most talented director's to survive the silent era of film. Bringing with him innovation and a unique directing style, he managed to put out back-to-back success with The Racket, All Quiet on the Western Front, and then The Front Page. His films hold up today like few other director's from his time manage to do, and this week's film is no exception. Find out more on today's episode of Once Upon a Time at the Oscars!
