Episode 17: The Long Good Friday
Listen now
Description
You think you've had a rough day? Okay, you probably have, but Bob Hoskins is about to take you on a 24 hour crash course in crisis management in John Mackenzie's 1980 crime-drama The Long Good Friday. Before that, we delve into what we've recently watched, including a discussion on just how often a remake supersedes the original. Hint: it ain't that frequent. We reach the end of an era with one (or is it two?) of Max's final Stanpicks before a new star enters his radar. John's Dream Stream requires your full focus and it's advisable to keep your pets out of the room when you view Hunter's Bleak of the Week.
