No Escape (1953) with Soren Sorensen

Pods Against Tomorrow reinvestigates the noir genre one film at a time. Join our hosts, Hugh Manon and Abe Doubleday-Bush, along with a rotating guest — our "Ace in the Hole" — as they delve into an analysis of classic, neo-, and pastiche film noirs. Each episode explores the timeless themes that shaped the film noir genre and changed American pop culture forever.

This week's Ace in the Hole is returning guest Soren Sorensen, a documentary filmmaker and Screen Studies program director at Clark University. Soren's most recent film is OMAR SOSA'S 88 WELL-TUNED DRUMS, which is available to rent or purchase on Amazon! Soren, the first member of the Pods Against Tomorrow 4-Timers Club, joins us to discuss frequent Hitchcock collaborator Charles Bennett's B-movie noir, the 1953 film NO ESCAPE.
