Le Samouraï popped up in the French New Wave and gave us the definitive image of the “cool Hit Man” that endures to this day, and so it only made sense that Clint, Cal and Alex welcome special guest and co-writer and director of Hit Man, Richard Linklater! The Academy Award nominated filmmaker chats about why people think retail hitmen actually exist, how Le Samouraï helped influence that belief and why the rest of the French New Wave looked up to Jean Pierre Melville and his incredible nom-de-guerre from the French Revolution.
It’s a super fun, super special in-between season installment of the CineFix Top 100 and we hope you have a good time with it!
Meanwhile, Dan’s algorithm is chirping like crazy in its cage, so we think somebody planted a bug in our apartment.
CineFix Top 100 was created by Clint Gage and Dan Parkhurst and is produced by Tayo Oyekan, with Director of Photography, Jamie Parslow and Technical Producer, Marhyan Franzen. Our Executive Producers are Clint Gage and Corrado Caretto. Logo and graphic design by Eric Sapp and title animations by Casey Redmon.
