For our twenty-ninth episode, friend of the show Robert Yaniz Jr. (Crooked Table) joins us for a discussion of John McTiernan’s newly-minted 1993 cult classic “Last Action Hero”, as told by McTiernan himself (kinda, you won’t hear any clips on this ep). There’s so much to delve into, from the director constantly apologizing to what happens when Arnold Schwarzenegger plays Hamlet to everyone’s favorite character: cartoon cat police officer Whiskers, and so much more.
Ryan’s Recommendations: “The Lady Eve” (1941), “Sullivan’s Travels” (1941), and “The Palm Beach Story” (1942)
