Payback (1999)
linktr.ee/CatchingUpOnCinema
This February is “Frame of Reference” month at Catching Up On
Cinema!
All month long, Trevor and Kyle will be reviewing films that have
frequently been referenced in recent episodes of the podcast.
Due to a technical snafu, our initial review this month, of Brian
Helgeland's, Payback (1999) had to be re-recorded as a solo affair,
featuring only Trevor on the mic.
A grim neo-noir crime thriller, Payback (1999) was prolific
Hollywood writer Brian Helgeland's feature directorial debut.
Apparently a somewhat contentious production, Helgeland was
apparently ousted from the production at some point during filming.
Despite often being criticized for its cruel atmosphere, the film
would later receive a director's cut, overseen by Helgeland, that is
considerably shorter than the theatrical cut, though it is up for
debate which version is the superior cut.
