The Verdict (1982) with Paula Scher
Paula Scher calls The Verdict “a favorite” and rightfully so. The performances are spectacular, the mystery keeps you engaged, and the ending leaves a mark. In addition to the movie, we discuss dedication and focus, Better Call Saul, pinball, Cool Hand Luke, and Michael Clayton, although not in that order. Her new book, Paula Scher: Works, chronicles her early days in the music industry as an art director with CBS Records and Atlantic Records, to the launch of her first studio Koppel & Scher, to her 25-year engagement with Pentagram.
