Movie Meltdown - Episode 188
Unlock the cage and let loose the beast that we know as Tom Hardy!
Yes, we are back this week with not-so-special guest (according to
Scooter) co-hosts director
Scooter Downey
and actress
Rose Sirna!!
As they sit in for this week’s Sofa Theater feature:
Bronson. Both the star Tom Hardy and director Nicolas
Winding Refn have gone on these days to more mainstream success. So
we take a look at their work just before they broke through, with
this story about Britain's most notorious prisoner - Charles
Bronson.
And as we do our best to destroy Rose’s innocence, we also
mention... Eskimo cookies, Thief, Billy Bob Thornton, if two
hobbits had a baby, Fellini-vibe, reshoots, real life vs. cinematic
interpretation, preparing you to be a drone, so Kevin Kline without
being Kevin Kline, a mental picture of Rush Limbaugh, Ashton
Kutcher, nihilistic and godless, Clean Shaven, Dominic Monaghan,
movie stereotypes, The Fonz, Lost, breaking the fourth wall,
Citizen Kane, getting in trouble in high school, Topher Grace,
Sling Blade, Juan Mata, James Caan, the guy with the tennis racket,
Raging Bull, being educated by movies and existential
formaldehyde.
Spoiler Alert:
Go watch “Bronson” before listening to this episode.
“It’s like Looney Tunes meets A Clockwork Orange or
something?”
