End Credits #357 - September 18, 2024 (Rebel Ridge)
from Guelph Politicast · host Adam A. Donaldson
This week on End Credits we're going to fight the power! Get ready for another mashing of action and social justice as a former Marine hands out a lesson in justice in unexpected ways in Rebel Ridge on Netflix. For the rest of the show, we're going to tackle something funnier, and goofier, a fellow Canadian who made a very big splash 30 years ago with three comedic hits! This Wednesday, September 18, at 3 pm, Adam A. Donaldson and Peter Salmon will discuss: Jim Class Hero. Thirty years ago, Jim Carrey went from second banana on In Living Color to one of the biggest movie starts in Hollywood with a hattrick of big comedy hits. This week, we will revisit Ace Venture: Pet Detective, The Mask, and Dumb and Dumber and we will look at the ways they still hold up, the ways these films feel dated now, and why Carrey ended up riding them to become a superstar and Hollywood's first $20 million man! REVIEW: Rebel Ridge (2024). You may have heard of civil asset forfeiture, or you may have seen the episode of Last Week Tonight about it. For his new movie, director Jeremy Saulnier decided to make this American civil rights issue his focus by telling the story of a former Marine who comes to small Louisiana town to bail out his cousin only to have the local cops seize the bail money. What follows is a tried and true movie formula: a stranger rides into town and cleans up corruption, but do you think Green Room director Saulnier would so something that straight forward? End Credits is on CFRU 93.3 fm and cfru.ca Wednesday at 3 pm.
