Former NFL player Jim Brown leads an all star cast in heist film The Split, which adapts one of the many novels featuring the Parker character written by Donald Westlake. So why are we wondering if this movie is “really that bad?” Because this was the first movie to ever be rated R after the dismantling of the Hays Code! We also talk about notable athletes that moved over to acting once their playing days were over, and some history on the specific things the Hays Code prohibited in films, to put this movie in context. So come join us! Children under 17 should be accompanied by an adult.
