Many Friday nights he'd have to call an audible mid pre-game and just stay in if it was on TNT or AMC. In Summary, he is an expert in the film. Today however, he will look at this legit movie through a strictly historical lens. It's ripe time to learn something new about an old love. Primary Research Performed by J.D.
