This week on S&A Lindsay and film critic Nadine Whitney take a look at a story of two different film makers. The Journey Man and the Auteur and how they tell the same story. J. Lee Thompson's Cape Fear (1962) & Martin Scorsese's Cape Fear (1991). Two very different versions of the cigar chomping Max Caddy.
And not as many Simpson's references as you think.
