Patron Exclusive Review Episode 88

The Outsider

Before Miami Vice creator Michael Mann defined the Buddy Cop formula for 80s television, he made an iconic expose of the Chicago underworld in his feature film debut, Thief.  Is master safecracker James Caan free to live the straight life with Tuesday Weld once he performs a final jewelry heist with James Belushi (Red Heat)?  And how did The Godfather star wind up serving jail time with country singer Willie Nelson? Jakob, Stuart, and Arnie are ready to slip you the passcode for this podcast review when you become a Now Playing Patron this January.
