BONUS Tie-in 64 - 48 Hrs (teaser) (opens the original)
Read excerpt
In this podcast we are tying into this month's theme of Walter Hill's directorial exploits in the 1980s with a debate about his biggest hit of the decade (or even his entire career), the 1982 48 Hrs . Over the course of our conversation you will hear us talk about how this was a producer-led passion project carried from the 1970s by Larry Gordon and how it introduced the world to Eddie Murphy.

We also discuss the movie as an allegory of the Vietnam War in direct contravention of what Walter Hill would have liked, the film working as a descendant of

Read excerpt
In this episode of our 80s Icons series we are carving out time to talk about one of the foremost action heroes of the era, Arnold Schwarzenegger. And on this occasion we are discussing the 1985 Commando .
