Gone in 60 Seconds

Mike Field and Mike Butler have 3 days to steal 50 cars with Nicolas Cage, but they're going wait until the last minute to do it in 1 night! This is Gone in 60 Seconds!!!!

Join the Mikes as they discuss how orange the film is, and why every actor has bleach-blonde hair or frosted tips. They'll also talk about Giovanni Ribisi's character being too all over the place, the uselessness of Angelina Jolie's character, and why despite being (at least on paper) fairly similar, this film didn't have the legs or sequel power that the The Fast and the Furious film did.

So, grab your popcorn and soda, please notice the exits to the left and right of you 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.
