This week on the Poz Button Borzoi expresses a lot of feelings about the 1931 German film M by Fritz Lang. Join him, Nick Mason, and Leitis as they talk about serial killers, criminal justice system and the German Expressionist movement for nearly 4 hours. In addition, Borzoi rolls out his first attempt at doing a film commentary, overlaid over M. Check the link in the notes!
