Episode 156 - The Ice Road
Manage episode 396282959 series 2892463
In this episode of the show we are going on a road trip with Liam Neeson while trying not to be left out in the cold, as we talk The Ice Road! Over the course of our conversation you will hear us try to understand what makes this movie work way better than it perhaps should, how important it is to anchor an action movie in the classics of the genre and whether it would have worked even half as well without the film's central character dynamic. Surprisingly enough, in a conversation about a disposable direct-to-streaming actioner we end up talking about 90s blockbusters, The Wages of Fear and even John Steinbeck himself!
Tune in and enjoy!
Hosts: Jakub Flasz & Randy Burrows
Intro: Infraction - Cassette
Outro: Infraction - Daydream
