#43 – THE TOWN and its Fenway Park premiere

Posted on by

FBI agent Adam Frawley (John Hamm) and his team pursue bank robbers at Boston's Fenway Park in Warner Bros. Picture's 'The Town.'

This week, John and I discuss Ben Affleck’s Boston-filmed thriller, The Town. But before that, we reminisce about the film’s premiere, which was held last week at Fenway Park. (Click here for my photos.)

For this weeks picks, I recommend Fox’s The Cleveland Show: Season One and FX’s The League: Season One on DVD, and John implores you to catch FUNimation Entertainment’s Hetalia: Axis Powers, also new to DVD.
