Les Misérables / Smooth Ambler Contradiction

Bob and Brad return to the world of the movie musical with a look at 2012's Les Misérables, a surprisingly controversial retelling of the Victor Hugo novel and the Broadway play. Director Tom Hooper has undergone a pretty negative reevaluation in the years since this film's release, and the guys break down which of his tendencies help the movie, and which ones hinder it.

Meanwhile, they sip on their first whiskey from Smooth Ambler, the blend of straight bourbons known as Contradiction. This one seems to fly off the shelves, even at just a $30 price tag, but is the lower-proof whiskey worth a purchase?
