240 - Skidoo
🕑 Added 2025-04-14 01:00:07 +0000 UTCJen welcomes Jesse Hawken of the venerable Junk Filter podcast to help her detox from the bad trip that is Otto Preminger's Skidoo!
See Preminger host his own trailer for Bunny Lake is Missing, and you better not show up late or he'll open up a can of Vienna-sausage-in-chicken-broth whoop-ass on you.
Preminger and singer/songwriter Harry Nilsson appeared on the August 30th, 1968 episode of Playboy After Dark to promote, quixotically, their latest film. Nilsson seems to know what's up, triggering Preminger's always-present wrath.
Skidoo screenwriter (yes, they had one!) Doran William Cannon wrote a piece for the New York Times in 1971 about the painful experience of writing Brewster McCloud for Robert Altman.
