Added 2024-05-15 18:37:59 +0000 UTCWill & Hesse are joined by Aaron & Carlee of the Hit Factory Podcast to discuss two neo-noirs, 1991’s One False Move directed by Carl Franklin, and 1994’s The Last Seduction directed by John Dahl. Both explore the classic noir themes of evil, greed, lust & betrayal, with One False Move exploring the dark brutality of the genre, and The Last Seduction having sexy fun with it.

2024-11-25 12:13:34 +0000 UTCGoofy, yes. That's how cops are, though. They get too far out in the sticks and just give up on calls sometimes.
Equality State Of Mind
2024-11-25 12:11:44 +0000 UTCYou should see them, though. There's two are pretty fun.
Equality State Of Mind
2024-11-25 12:07:27 +0000 UTCYeah, and giving them a hug while stabbing them is just unwise, from a criminal point of view, so you know he's got psychology.

2024-11-25 12:00:56 +0000 UTCThey should have Felix on that one to do some gratuitous commentary on weapons and combat tactics!
Equality State Of Mind
2024-11-25 11:58:33 +0000 UTCSo, the scene where Wendy gets back in the cab after talking to Trish? It's the only time she looked genuinely upset when there was nobody around to swindle; she was worried about getting AIDS, 100%. Given the decade and her perfect narcissism, there is no other reading. She was the protagonist, but she was not a hero. Heroism requires an heroic motive. She was a sexy, evil genius whose only motives were greed and assuaging her own boredom.

J.P. McD.
2024-05-29 03:32:22 +0000 UTCDoes anyone else think that maybe these women are being underestimated by the men around them and have to use their sexuality as a weapon and/or defense? Didn't hear this come up.

2024-05-20 04:43:10 +0000 UTCI recommend the graphic novels Fatale,Criminal,Incognito,The Fade Out,and Scene of The Crime if you want some excellent Femme Fatale/Crime Noir. Pretty much anything by Ed Brubaker with Sean Phillips doing the art is superb in this genre. This episode made me think of those books and older films as well. I need to check these films out. Thanks for covering them🙏🏻

2024-05-18 14:27:47 +0000 UTCAccording to Wikipedia Linda Fiorentino had considerable Oscar buzz for this role but the academy denied her a nomination because the movie played on HBO before it was in theaters. Just one more reason the academy should be burned to the ground.

Jenkum Terry
2024-05-18 07:53:25 +0000 UTCI shouldn’t be commenting. I know it is annoying. But Hurricane takes the detectives to the uncle shack before he overhears their mockery. His retelling of the interaction with the uncle is what begins their little backyard bbq. He overhears their mockery before taking them to fantasia’s family home, and this is when the cracks in his character really begin to show.

Aaaaaaaaaaa
2024-05-17 01:26:36 +0000 UTCReally glad they mentioned the Pellicano/Fiorentino connection. Truly, completely wild. A Pellicano story would be a perfect Coen Bros thing. He’s like a darker, real life version of Josh Brolin’s character in Hail, Caesar.

Scott Grabel
2024-05-16 15:03:42 +0000 UTCpaxton heads, check out Bill Paxton's New Wave Band, Martini Ranch. they've got some bops. James Cameron directed one of their music videos and it's the most James Cameron thing imaginable. https://youtu.be/rkz0Lx6VyxA?si=woWv8WRRWp4ENNN3

2024-05-16 10:32:21 +0000 UTCThey mentioned it when they said Tommy Lee Jones refused to do Men In Black 2 if Linda Fiorentino was gonna be in it.

2024-05-16 08:55:14 +0000 UTCI’m upset no one brought up Men In Black which was my introduction to Linda Fiorentino and that was probably my very first introduction to thinking women are hot

Ben Reed
2024-05-15 22:52:48 +0000 UTCAt first I thought you said this movie featured "Lucinda Williams" and it sounded just amazing! But Cynda Williams is fine, too. Lucinda Williams WAS in Allison Anders' "Strutter" and she basically played herself, out of a cabin in Joshua Tree. It was awesome.
