The Conversation
Mike and Dan have a secretly-recorded conversation about The Conversation, Francis Ford Coppola's 1974 examination of wiretapping, privacy, and conscience. Dan notes that the film takes its spiritual themes seriously; Mike talks about Gene Hackman's remarkable performance. Dan confesses to thinking there was a mistake in the screenplay but then realizing that what he first assumed was lazy writing turned out to be just the opposite.
