Episode 106 - The Whole Nine Yards

The Forbidden Cinema crew take a moment to come out of our normal timeline to pay homage to the late, great Matthew Perry. This week we go all the way in to the distant future of the year 2000 to look at the Bruce Willis / Matthew Perry caper comedy, The Whole Nine Yards.  This critically mixed (but must have been commercially valid as there was a sequel) film had it's flaws, but at a brisk 98 minutes with credits and 2 musical numbers it flew by with some incredible physical comedy from an immensely likable cast. We welcome in Natasha Henstridge to the podcast without having done Species yet, Zack is flummoxed.  We have suicide humor, Harland Williams, and a delightful performance by Amanda Peet.  We both are shocked at how huge of a man, and how funny of a man Michael Clarke Duncan is.  We also spend some time talking about how an R rated comedy was released in the year 2000 targeted at adults, but not with post American Pie raunchy humor.
