Episode 230: Michael Mann Redux (feat. Brian Tallerico & Ryan Verrill)

Written By James Laczkowski

Have you been waiting for the Mann? Well it's been over a decade since we last discussed his work back when Patrick and I mainly covered our love for both Heat & The Insider. Cut to present time, I have recruited two of my favorite returning guests to touch upon nearly every title by Michael Mann focusing on his post-Collateral output since it wasn't covered last time. 

Grateful to both Ryan Verrill (The Disc-Connected) and Brian Tallerico (RogerEbert.com) for joining me for a delightful conversation about Michael Mann, from his humble beginnings to his foray into digital video and more! Next month after awards season voting ends, we'll be back with a brand new episode covering the directorial work of the legendary Jackie Chan! Stay tuned for an upcoming bonus interview featuring filmmaker Joel Potrykus (Vulcanizadora, Buzzard, Relaxer).
