Michael and Tim discuss the final film in their look at Jimmy Stewart’s biographical movies: Carbine Williams (1952), about the man who developed the floating chamber in automatic weapons—a key innovation behind the M1 Carbine rifle used in World War II—while serving time in prison.

Along the way, they share favorite prison movies and invention stories, including The Shawshank Redemption (1994) and Unfrosted (2024).
