The Drop

It's time for severed hands, bad accents, and an adorable pit bull puppy on this episode of Forgotten Cinema as the Mikes discuss the 2014 film, The Drop, starring Tom Hardy, Noomi Rapace, and James Gandolfini in his final role before his passing.

Mike Field and Mike Butler both very much enjoy the story being told in this film. The writing and the dialogue are very well done. Butler believes that perhaps the film could have been served better as a short film, as it does seem to stretch the story it's trying to tell a little too much. Field enjoys the performances of the Hardy and Gandolfini, and so does Mike, however there is one aspect about Hardy's performance that Butler cannot abide...his terrible Eddie Brock Brooklyn accent.

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