The Driver

 

After a short review of Quentin Tarantino's Once Upon A Time IN Hollywood, the 2 Furious podcasters take a look at Walter Hill's THE DRIVER. Criminals with fast cars and the win-at-all-costs cop who chases after them are front and center of this 1978 neo-noir film. The boys talk about the nameless characters, the fascinating performances by Ryan O'Neal, Bruce Dern, Isabelle Adjani, Ronee Blakely, and Matt Clark, and all those chase scenes. Plus, was it the subject matter, the final casting, or something inbetween that turned audiences away from the first film to make the Wheelman the central character of a crime movie? Stay tuned for Jon's Driver Unification Theory and more!

 

We respect a man that's good at what he does. It's THE DRIVER!
