1.2 - The Legend of Tarzan

The Mikes' journey into Forgotten Cinema takes them through the jungles of Africa in the 2016 adventure film, The Legend of Tarzan.

Our hosts discuss why adventure films seem to have taken a back seat in films, how this film harkens back to the "Golden Age" of cinema and why does Samuel L. Jackson keeps getting cast as a Civil War veteran?

So grab your popcorn and soda, please notice the exits at the front and rear of the auditorium, and settle down for Forgotten Cinema.

About the Podcast

Forgotten Cinema
A podcast about forgotten films that deserve a second chance
Welcome to Forgotten Cinema! Each episode, Mike Field and Mike Butler highlight a film that for a variety of reasons was forgotten by audiences. Whether it be because a more popular movie was released at the same time or the movie simply didn’t catch on with an audience in the its initial run. We’ll discuss what we love about the movie or perhaps don’t love about it and decide whether the movie is worth a revisit.
