Episode 1.10 - The Racket: Cops vs. Robbers

Regular episodes of The Oscar Project are back and this week I'm discussing the 1928 film The Racket. This story is adapted from a play of the same name and was considered one of the most important cop/gangster films of the time when it was released. Listen now to learn about the threats made against the creators and as always, my own thoughts about the film.

Look for more episodes every Monday as I finish out the rest of the films nominated for Oscars at the very first Academy Awards.
