Someone Else's Movie

Ensign Broderick on The Swimmer

Episode Summary

This episode isn't really about The Swimmer, Frank and Eleanor Perry's 1968 drama about the death of the American dream. It's just the hook for singer-songwriter Ensign Broderick -- whose new album Bloodcrush is in stores and online, and whose song "Accidence" powers the new short by Guy Maddin, Evan Johnson and Galen Johnson -- to talk about the film music he finds most meaningful. And it turns out your genial host Norm Wilner is just fine with that.
