Our take on The Plot Thickens podcast

The Plot Thickens is a film history podcast by TCM & Novel. If you're into movies and the stories behind them, The Plot Thickens is a must-listen. Hosted by Ben Mankiewicz, this podcast from TCM explores the lives of cinema legends. Season five is all about John Ford, a complex man who was both a genius and a tough one. They even explore the mystery of his lost WWII film. It's like a detective story but for film buffs, where each episode feels like finding a piece of Hollywood's hidden history.
