This week, we're firing up the intensity with Heat, Michael Mann's epic 1995 crime saga that brought together two cinematic titans — Al Pacino and Robert De Niro — for the first time ever in a shared scene. (Yes, The Godfather Part II doesn't count — different timelines, folks.) Heat is a gritty, stylish, and emotionally charged cat-and-mouse thriller set against the moody backdrop of Los Angeles. Pacino plays Lt. Vincent Hanna, a relentless LAPD detective with a chaotic personal life and a flair for dramatic yelling. De Niro is Neil McCauley, a cool, calculating career thief who lives by a strict code: never get attached to anything you can't walk out on in 30 seconds flat if you feel the heat around the corner. After a high-stakes armored car heist goes sideways, Hanna starts closing in on McCauley and his crew, which includes a young, twitchy Val Kilmer and Tom Sizemore in full 90s tough-guy mode. The film builds toward one of the most iconic diner scenes in film history — a quiet, tense face-off between Pacino and De Niro — and ends with a pulse-pounding airport showdown you won't forget. With a killer supporting cast (Ashley Judd, Natalie Portman, Jon Voight, and even a blink-and-you'll-miss-him Henry Rollins), a haunting score, and shootouts that still influence action films today, Heat isn't just a movie — it's an experience. Stylish, sprawling, and full of moral gray areas, it's Michael Mann at the top of his game. So buckle up, because this week on Totally 80s and 90s Recall, we're diving deep into the heat, the heists, and that glorious late-90s energy.

Luke and Chris return to the Corleone saga with Francis Ford Coppola's epic sequel The Godfather Part II. They unpack the film's complex structure, its reputation as the greatest sequel of all time, and the descent of Michael Corleone from reluctant heir to isolated kingpin. Along the way, they explore Fredo's tragic arc, Hyman Roth's manipulative brilliance, and Vito's rise through turn-of-the-century New York. From family dinners to political assassinations, this episode dives deep into the moral ambiguity and cinematic mastery of a film that redefined the American crime epic. Plus: why Tom Hagen might actually be the devil, and a bold theory for skipping Part III entirely.Follow us on Facebook: Franchise Addicts

Original Release Date: Monday 12 May 2025    Description:   Phil is back from Fort Worth, Texas, and has a Logan's Run location story to share with Dean. Phil also regales Dean with the story behind a delicious cocktail at the Grand Hotel in Oslo (named in “honor” of pop icon Madonna). Dean and Phil try to make sense of Jon Voight's plans to "save" Hollywood and how the President seized on those plans while probably misunderstanding them completely and/or intentionally. Meanwhile, "Sinners" might end up affecting real change in the film business and your friends in podcasting will discuss how. One of the all-time great actors, William Holden, and one of the all-time great actresses, Barbara Stanwyck, get discussed through the prism of two films: Executive Suite and Stella Dallas, and THE all-time greatest film (according to the 2022 Sight and Sound poll) also gets analyzed. This film is celebrating its 50th anniversary and so the conversation turns to other films of the era, including, perhaps, the greatest of all Francis Coppola films (and no, we're not talking about The Godfather Part II).

Send us a textIn this episode, we take a deep dive into The Godfather Part II, Francis Ford Coppola's masterful sequel (and prequel) to the 1972 classic. We explore how the film brilliantly weaves together the rise of a young Vito Corleone, played by Robert De Niro, with the struggles of Michael Corleone, portrayed by Al Pacino, as he tightens his grip on the family empire.We discuss the film's themes of power, loyalty, and corruption, analyzing how Michael's descent into isolation and paranoia contrasts with Vito's journey as an immigrant forging his path in America. We also examine the film's stunning cinematography, haunting score, and unforgettable performances that solidified its place as one of the greatest films of all time.Join us as we break down key scenes, debate whether Part II surpasses its predecessor, and uncover the film's lasting impact on cinema and pop culture.Visit Drama From the Past on FacebookNick Leshi's City of Kik blogThe Regular Guy Movie ShowIn this podcast, three longtime friends revisit the movies they grew up with to...Listen on: Apple Podcasts SpotifySupport the showBrowse the 33/24 Archives: Check out the backroom!

To mark the passing of the great Gene Hackman, the writer and critic Sean T. Collins and the cartoonist and graphic novelist Julia Gfrörer are my special guests for a deep dive into one of our favourite films, Francis Ford Coppola's The Conversation (1974).The Conversation was groundbreaking in terms of film editing; when Coppola was pulled away to direct The Godfather Part II, editor Walter Murch had to streamline a narrative out of an incomplete film shoot and synthesized new approaches to picture editing and sound design which he credited to studying Hackman's precise performance as the surveillance expert Harry Caul, a lonely middle-aged man whose Catholic guilt and past sins begins to weigh on his conscience as he obsesses over his latest spycraft job, plagued with worry over the fate of the young couple he's recorded and what the tape will be used for by his sinister corporate client. We discuss the autobiographical details Coppola lent to the characterization and Jungian psychoanalysis that can be applied to the content, some of our favourite moments, and how the themes of The Conversation continue to resonate with audiences over half a century later. Follow Sean T.

We explore how the sequel expands on the themes of power, betrayal, and legacy, providing unique insights into the film's rich narrative and Francis Ford Coppola's genius direction.Chapters:00:00:00 Post movie discussion: Make sense it's called the greatest00:03:55 The difference between Michael & Vito's reign as Don00:12:51 The contrast between Part I & Part II opening scenes00:16:50 The greatest mistake a Senator could ever make00:23:49 Lighting tricks that show the fault in the family00:25:08 The poor men Connie date00:27:22 The destruction of Michael's idea of family00:31:01 The women in Michael's life cause him to change00:32:29 When Kay tells him the brutal truth00:36:05 The difference in Michael closing off Kay in Part I & II00:39:34 You just love to hate Fredo00:46:24 Uncle Junior with The Godfather appearance00:48:39 Why Vito's backstory is so significant00:50:18 Would Vito have killed Fredo00:54:19 Why the ending is perfect00:57:30 Dialogue to music level, not good00:59:06 Our ratings01:01:47 Final thoughts01:05:22 Cue the music

Sometimes, the consensus is that the sequel is actually better than the movie (see The Empire Strikes Back, Godfather Part II, For A Few Dollars More, The Winter Soldier, Evil Dead 2, Wrath of Khan, or Paddington 2 for examples), and now that we're in the back half of Werewolf Winter, let's find out how the Jason Bateman-led Teen Wolf Too stacks up against the original. Surely, they wouldn't just try to cash in on a *monster* hit, would they? Behold, the greatest scene in any film ever. One might say it's RAD.

All of the nearly three hundred episodes we've done so far have been enthusiastic celebrations of artists whose work we admire so greatly that we had to invent a podcast to talk about it. But in this very strange episode, we talk about a film so awful in so many ways that we are baffled by how it came from the same man who directed four unquestionable masterpieces in a row. The Rainmaker (1997) is–and we mean this without irony–a fascinating film that does everything that films like The Conversation and The Godfather Part II avoid. It works on paper: there's Coppola, of course, but also a bestseller as its source material, Matt Damon, Claire Danes, Mickey Roarke, Danny DeVito, Jon Voight, Danny Glover, and (inexplicably) Roy Scheider. But even Sheriff Brody can't kill this beast. Rather than offer a litany of complaints, we talk about the concept of a “shadow movie”: the movie that could have been, the one lurking beneath the film we actually see. This is the only episode in which we don't follow our usual three-part structure, because we didn't know if we'd be releasing this one. But we think that we can learn more about films from even one as terrible as this. If you're interested in the source for Coppola's film, you can find the novel here. Incredible bumper music by John Deley.

Given the fact that it seems like Hollywood churns out nothing but sequels, you would think the industry would have perfected the genre by now. Some sequels are pretty darn good, but many believe the perfect movie sequel came out 50 years ago this month. Of course, we're talking about Francis Ford Coppola's The Godfather: Part II. It's not only considered the greatest sequel of all time, it's also considered one of the greatest movies of all time. So why does Godfather II work, and where so many other sequels fall short?

In honor of the 50th anniversary of Francis Ford Coppola's masterpiece, The Godfather: Part II, Bald Move is rereleasing their coverage. Jim and A.Ron do another deep dive into the world of Coppola's The Godfather, this time looking at Part II, which celebrates it's 40th anniversary tomorrow. A darker, more brooding, more intricate film that it's predecessor, we struggle to answer the question, which is better? Along the way we play a lot of what if's and comparisons. Clemenza or Pentangeli? Vito or Michael? Brando or De Niro? When did Vito decide to be the Don? What is Tom and Michael's relationship at the end? Where did Michael go wrong? DID Michael go wrong? All this and much more is contemplated in this mammoth two hour podcast, for your holiday enjoyment. Hope you enjoy listening as much as we enjoyed recording it.
