On Tuesday, February 13, the Film Snob brain trust, David Kamp and Lawrence Levi, will be appearing on the noontime Leonard Lopate Show on WNYC public radio (93.9 FM and AM 820). We will be discussing the Oscar-nominated films with the ever-bearded, ever-thoughtful Mr. Lopate, and touching upon such topics as “Is it at last Marty’s year?” and “Jackie Earle Haley–who knew?” We’ll also be taking the liberty of calling Mr. Lopate “Lenny.” Don’t miss it.
