The Crow with Colin Jackson-Brown
from At the Movies in the 90s · host Film Stories
"People once believed that when someone dies, a crow carries their soul to the land of the dead. But sometimes, something so bad happens that a terrible sadness is carried with it and the soul can't rest." The Crow is now three decades old, a production more of legend than fact, known for the tragic death of star Brandon Lee while making the film. It has become a mythologised picture, but what are the facts behind the fiction? Was it really a cursed movie? In this episode of AT THE MOVIES IN THE 90s, a podcast about the cinema of the 90s, your host A. J. Black is joined by brand new guest, podcaster and music obsessive Colin Jackson-Brown, to delve into Alex Proyas' dark comic-book horror picture, discuss the fascinating backstory, dig deep into the iconic soundtrack, and consider the sequels and imminent remake. Plus, Colin discusses his favourite movies of the 1990s, and oh my god, one in particular you will never see coming... Host / Editor A. J. Black Guest Colin Jackson-Brown Find A.
