Film Inquiry presents So Grosse, Such Pointe, Much Blank, a new podcast obsessively devoted to contextualizing and celebrating Grosse Pointe Blank (1997). Each week, join hosts Blake I. Collier and Joe George for a deep dive into the discographies and filmographies of all the cast, crew, and musicians featured in the film as well as a minute-by-minute analysis and interviews with first-time viewers, critics, cast & crew, etc.!
In this very special episode of So Grosse Such Pointe Much Blank, we visit with Pat Jankiewicz, author of Just When You Thought It Was Safe: A Jaws Companion, a correspondent for Fangoria, writer for various publications, but, perhaps most importantly, the brother of the late Tom Jankiewicz, writer of Grosse Pointe Blank. We talk about his older brother, the writing and development of the film, Michiganisms, Detroit’s great Bill Kennedy, and about Tom’s late-night therapy sessions for viewers of his film. We are so excited to bring this wonderful interview to you all and we hope you enjoy it as much as we did!
Journalist Pat Jankiewicz is the author of 4 books and proud to be the brother of Tom Jankiewicz.
