Dan and Brian discuss a film Dan was surprised to adore during his Tom Hanks binge a couple of years ago, the Joe Dante-directed comedy tinged with horror The ‘Burbs. Join as they discuss the film’s production and writing history including its Hitchcock connections, the young Tom Hanks shtick, the film’s suburban satire and cartoon energy, and their love of the film’s divisive ending. Dan also shares his top 11 Tom Hanks movies.
