Time for the Mikes to go back to 1958 New Orleans and channel their inner King for this week's episode of Forgotten Cinema; King Creole.
This episode of Forgotten Cinema Season 5: Audience Choice! is brought to us by GI Gary over at the Pint O' Comics podcast.
Listen in as Mike Field and Mike Butler discuss this early Elvis Presley film, directed by Michael Curtiz, who directed a small film you may have heard of called Casablanca. They'll talk about the authentic outdoor sets, what does and doesn't work in terms of character development, the use of lighting, and of course...the King himself.
Thanks again to GI Gary and find out more about Pint O' Comics at pintocomics.com and listen to their podcast wherever you listen to your podcasts.
So grab your popcorn and soda, please notice the exits at the front and rear of the auditorium, and settle down for Forgotten Cinema.

The Brothers Ortiz
The Brothers Ortiz is the story of two brothers–both successful, but in very different ways. Gabe Ortiz becomes a third-highest ranking officer in all of Texas while his younger brother Larry climbs the ranks in Puro Tango Blast, a notorious Texas Prison gang. Gabe doesn’t know all the details of his brother’s nefarious dealings, and he’s made a point not to ask, to protect their relationship.

To solve Larry’s murder, Gabe, and the whole Ortiz family, must ask each other tough questions.
