Look at me. Barry Sonnenfeld managed to adapt Elmore Leonard’s novel “Get Shorty” into a fun gangster crime-thriller comedy that’s also a satire of the entire film industry. John Travolta, Gene Hackman, Rene Russo, Delroy Lindo, Danny Devito, and James Gandolfini shine as they are caught up in Chili Palmer’s orbit. In episode 141, Luke & James take a ride in a minivan into Hollywood in the 90s. Topics: a surprise Gandolfini, stars playing against type, the value of a faithful adaptation, the “Touch of Evil” love connection, the “joke” title origins, and a vote on which was better: the book or the movie.
