Duncan tries to depress Lex into submission with his supreme downer of a pick, Scarecrow (1973), starring Gene Hackman (fresh off The Poseidon Adventure) and Al Pacino (months away from Serpico) as vagabond buddies who could never be accused of overachievement. Adorned with mighty character actors and the shabbiest locations the seventies had to offer, this long-overlooked film wanders and enchants until it's time to deliver a death blow. Thankfully, your hosts find plenty of ways to lighten the mood with a shocking nepo-baby reveal, a story about a personal encounter with one of the film's stars, and clips galore.
Will Gene's and Al's crackling star power pack enough explosiveness to blow Lex's mind? All you gotta do is press play to find out!
