Our In Memoriam to Monte Hellman soldiers on with his second feature, which also happens to mark this podcast's first foray into B-cinema outside of the horror and sci-fi standard bearers. Specifically, we're talking B-war films, and Hellman's bleak, prescient revision of the Second World War myth: "Back Door to Hell."Sources for this episode:Kent Jones, ““The Cylinders Were Whispering My Name”: The Films of Monte Hellman,” The Last Great American Picture Show: New Hollywood Cinema in the 1970s, ed.
