"We all go a little mad sometimes" Patrick Cotnoir (The George Lucas Talk Show) checks in to You're Missing Out once more, this time to discuss Alfred Hitchcock's hugely influential horror film, Psycho (1960). And of course, it wouldn't be a Patrick Cotnoir episode without some Star Wars ephemera talk. So we'll also be discussing the 1985 made-for-TV movie Ewoks: The Battle for Endor, which is arguably slightly less influential than Psycho.Watch the episode on YouTube hereHosts:Michael NataleTwitterInstagramLetterboxd Tom LorenzoTwitterInstagramLetterboxd Producer:Kyle LamparTwitterInstagram Guest:Patrick CotnoirTwitterThe George Lucas Talk Show Follow the Show:TwitterInstagramWebsite Music by Mike Natale Follow the Show:TwitterInstagramWebsite Music by Mike Natale
