Episode description
This week, Dan and Jon venture back into the neo-noir, Christmastime action-comedy world of Shane Black. This time, it’s director Tony Scott pairing up Bruce Willis (fresh off the failure of Hudson Hawk) and Damon Wayans (hot off the success of In Living Color) to take on crime and corruption in the NFL. The movie not only boasts one of Halle Berry’s earliest film roles, but also shares several notable connections to the following year’s Lorenzo’s Oil.
Also: Dan reminisces about his Billy Blanks Tae-Bo workouts and shares his reservations regarding the new Mrs. Doubtfire musical.
