Hitman Month Wraps Up with Grosse Pointe Blank (1997)

In this episode, Mike and Steven round out Hitman Month with a real gem: Grosse Pointe Blank. This George Armitage-directed rom-com is a beloved story of getting a second chance in life and, well, leaving your career as an assassin behind. It explores regret, existentialism, FOMO, and . . . unions. With great performances from John Cusak, Minnie Driver, Dan Aykroyd, and a whole slate of other actors, this is a film for the ages. __________________________________________And if you’d like to log as you go you can find everything we discuss this month on our Letterboxd list page here.__________________________________________Next week we begin Summer Blockbuster Month with 1989's comic book classic, Batman!__________________________________________Send your thoughts on Grosse Pointe Blank and the show to [email protected] us at @moviethrowdownpod on all your favorite social media platforms.Subscribe to the Weekly Movie Throwdown on Apple Podcasts | Spotify | RSSFolllow the show on social media and vote for a winner each week.YOUTUBE: youtube.com/@MovieThrowdownPodINSTAGRAM: instagram.com/moviethrowdownpod/TIKTOK: tiktok.com/@moviethrowdownpodTHREADS: threads.com/@moviethrowdownpodFACEBOOK: facebook.com/moviethrowdownpodLETTERBOXD: letterboxd.com/moviethrowdown/ Hosted on Acast.
