We're gonna get you, Stewart, because we're closing out Weird Sex Month with a look at Mike Nichols' sometimes boring, sometimes hilarious, sometimes uncomfortable, sometimes slow motion and always baffling 1994 film Wolf.Join us as we try to figure out how this thing got made, as it's a complete tonal and genre mishmash that doesn't always work, but it's never anything less than fascinating to watch. Don't worry, we go all in on the film's many production troubles.Plus: watersports, penis POV, a miscast Jack Nicholson, Magical Indigenous Character, doggy style sexual assault (yes, really), publishing house drama and some very twitchy ears.
