In this episode of Zwick Flick's Podcast, we are thrilled to have special guest Craig Cohen, renowned for his Slycast and his current project, The G.O.A.T. Podcast dedicated to Brian De Palma. Together, we break down The Last Samurai, diving into the film's rich historical context and the directorial brilliance of Edward Zwick. We also reference Ed Zwick’s latest book, Hits, Flops, and Other Illusions: My Fortysomething Years in Hollywood, which provides deeper insights into the making of the movie. Our discussion extends beyond the film as we delve into the fascinating, complex persona of Tom Cruise and his role as a movie star in Hollywood. Join us for a deep, entertaining conversation that covers cinema history, Cruise's multifaceted career, and more!
