Episode 198: The Rose Tattoo

ABOUT THE EPISODE:

And we're back after a brief hiatus with the final nominee of 1955, the lesser known (for a reason) Tennessee Williams penned The Rose Tattoo, starring Anna Magnani and Burt Lancaster.

But in a year of nominees this bad, could this be the Best Picture among a field of duds? Find out!
