A Perfect World

The Mikes are being held hostage by a charming yet murderous Kevin Costner, but it's okay, because Clint Eastwood is on his trail! But does "A Perfect World"(1993) fully come together, or does it feel just a little… incomplete?

This week on Forgotten Cinema, the Mike Field and Mike Butler are discussing "A Perfect World" (1993). Listen in as they take a look at this underrated crime drama starring Kevin Costner as an escaped convict who forms an unlikely bond with a kidnapped boy, all while being pursued by Clint Eastwood’s Texas Ranger. Both Field and Butler like this film, but they do have a few issues with it which Butler supposes may have been inadvertently due to a request by Costner.

Oh, and did you know Costner actually got called out by Eastwood on set? They’ll tell you what happened and what it says about these two Hollywood legends.

So, grab your popcorn and soda, please notice the exits to the left and right of you and settle down for Forgotten Cinema.
