Cliff Froehlich, critic for The Riverfront Times and former Executive Director of Cinema St. Louis, joins Joshua and Andrew to chat about Quentin Tarantino's latest work, Cinema Speculation, and Cliff's pick from the film-essay memoir, Rolling Thunder. Before diving into that 1977 revenge-o-matic cult classic, Andrew and Joshua review Mission: Impossible: Dead Reckoning - Part One, The Miracle Club, and Lynch/Oz. Cliff sticks around to school the boys (he's an actual professor, after all!) about Tarantino's book before they send you off with two totally original cinematic recommendations: The Mother and the Whore and John Ford.
Next up, they're breaking out! Andrew picks Don Siegel's 1979 Clint Eastwood vehicle Escape From Alcatraz. Until then, please share, subscribe, and review! Read on at TheTake-Up.com and follow us @thetakeupstl on Instagram/Twitter/Letterboxd/Facebook.
