Operation Kino Podcast #8: Fast Five Reviewed, Lying About Movies Discussed, And More

This week's podcast is chrome-wheeled fuel-injected and stepping out over the line. This week's podcast is only partially devoted to reviewing Fast Five, but I'd like to believe the spirit of adrenaline imbues the entire thing. In addition to going over the merits of the latest Vin Diesel/Paul Walker testosterone extravaganza, we tip our hats to Disney's Prom by looking back to favorite childhood films, pick our highlights and lowlights from the Tribeca Film Festival, and duke it out over whether or not you should ever have to pretend to have seen a classic film, and hey, who's to say which films you "have" to see anyway?
