While The Plot Thickens, the classic movie podcast produced by Turner Classic Movies and hosted by Ben Mankiewicz, is a great listen on its own, the best way to take your enjoyment of it a step further is to watch some of the movies that are brought up during the course of the season. In the case of The Plot Thickens season 5, that means watching (or rewatching) John Ford movies.
Ford is one of the most influential directors in Hollywood history. He has won more directing Oscars than anyone (four), has delivered multiple classics across different genres and inspired many of today’s best directors, including Steve Spielberg and Martin Scorsese. As The Plot Thickens season 5, subtitled "Decoding John Ford," goes over the life and career of the Hollywood legend, you can watch many of the movies they discuss on the podcast online right now (including some for free).
