BRASS TARGET with Keith Phipps
Manage episode 336716381 series 2897379
Our guest Keith Phipps is not just a sterling critic and a dad — an essential component when we cover a movie as openly paternal as 1978’s post-WWII espionage thriller Brass Target. He is also the author of new book examining the career of a singularly idiosyncratic actor. A Degree Absolute! endorses Keith’s book Age of Cage absolutely.
And Brass Target? Well, minute-for-minute, it has the most undiluted Patty McG purity rating of any film we’ve covered save perhaps for Braveheart. It’s much harder to find than that one but worth the hunt for those such as we. Invest in physical media, people.
Brass Target
Screenplay by Alvin Boretz, adapted from Frederick Nolan’s novel The Algonquin Project
Directed by John Hough
Released December 22, 1978
