Episode 180 - What in the Sam Hill

This time, in the cave, we take a look at two films from VERY manly men. We start off with 1972's "The Getaway" from iconic director Sam Peckinpah. It stars another icon, Steve McQueen as an ex-con who gets back into a life of crime, only to have everything go wrong and he's left trying to get away from everyone who's out to get him. The movie was written by show-favorite Walter Hill, who also wrote AND directed our second film, 1978's "The Driver". It stars Ryan O'Neal as an unnamed wheelman who is being pursued by a relentless cop played by Bruce Dern and it is packed with macho dialogue and incredible chase scenes. We recommend both movies and we also recommend that you reach out to us and tell us some other films we should cover on the podcast.Send us your thoughts on the show and recommendations for future episodes to [email protected] or [email protected].
