Ep #5: “Breaking In” (1989)
from Portland at the Movies · host Portland at the Movies
"Breaking In," a 1989 filmed-in-Portland movie starring Burt Reynolds, is technically about robbery, but in reality it's just a complete mystery. Siskel & Ebert loved it. So did "Rolling Stone." And it currently has an 89% rating on Rotten Tomatoes. All of which is completely befuddling, considering that this is a movie in which nothing happens, the characters don't learn or grow, and there is a seemingly purposeful deflation of any and all tension throughout the entire movie. It's also the reason that nobody has ever heard of this movie, filmed in various parts of Portland. Join us as we search laughter, larceny, and loot in this 1989 movie starring Reynolds and Casey Siemaszko. How Did Portland Look? Here are some screenshots.
