ABOUT THIS EPISODE
The 1960s produced "The Graduate," "Psycho," "Bonnie and Clyde" and many other classics. This week, we talk with SMU film professor Rick Worland about how these films are often overshadowed by the decade that followed - and about how they continue to influence the films we see today. His new book is called "Searching for New Frontiers: Hollywood Films in the 1960s"(Wiley-Blackwell).
