This week, Mindy’s favorite Hollywood couple reunites to bring George Cukor’s 1949 film Adam’s Rib to life.

Adam’s Rib, inspired by a true court case, has couple Adam and Amanda Bonner (Spencer Tracy and Katharine Hepburn respectively) squaring off in the courtroom with Amanda defending Doris Attinger (Judy Holliday) and Adam on the side of Doris’ cheating husband, Warren (Tom Ewell). The tension from the courtroom bleeds into the Bonner’s personal lives creating a dramatic, yet humorous tale that is relevant to this very day.

Also, Mark and MIndy discuss the new films District 9 and Inglourious Basterds.

We talk all sorts of trivia on this film, which stars Michael J. Fox, Trini Alvarado, Peter Dobson, John Astin, Chi McBride, Jake Busey, Dee Wallace, R. Lee Ermy and the incredible Jeffrey Combs.

Fox plays Frank Bannister, a psychic who turns from scamming local residents to trying to save them once the Grim Reaper sets its sights upon his town.
