This week the board works in mysterious ways as we cover the movie that got put on the board only one episode previous, and possibly the slimiest movie we've covered yet on the show. It's 1957's SWEET SMELL OF SUCCESS (#18 on the board) starring Tony Curtis (not Perkins) and Burt Lancaster in a towering supporting performance.
