BLINDSPOTS Episode 16: THE DRIVER, DEAD CALM, SORCERER & CAPE FEAR
Film Inquiry presents Blindspots with Jake and Kristy. In this new podcast series, Film Inquiry staff members and fast friends Jake Tropila and Kristy Strouse will each recommend a film they like that the other person has not seen. They will then watch the other person’s selection and come together to discuss their thoughts and reactions to both films. For those who seek hidden gems and new findings in the world of cinema, this is the podcast for you.
On this episode of the podcast, Jake and Kristy celebrate Thrillvember with another special double episode! They bring four films to the table to discuss: two by land and two by sea. Up first, they take a look at Walter Hill’s 1978 neo-noir LA car chase picture, The Driver. Next, it’s a trip down under with Phillip Noyce’s 1989 maritime thriller, Dead Calm. Then, they take a trek on William Friedkin’s perilous journey through the jungle in 1977’s Sorcerer. Lastly, they close things out with Martin Scorsese’s 1991 remake of the film with the same name, Cape Fear. All this and more on an all new Blindspots!
Music used in this episode is the Cape Fear Theme and Betrayal by Tangerine Dream from Sorcerer.
