Collins, Davies and the Cutting Edge




Warner Archive Podcast show

Summary: We start with a salute to the 20th anniversary of Neil Jordan's incendiary classic Michael Collins (1996) on Blu-ray. Next, TV shows on DVD lead the charge with the 6th Season of Medical Center (1974-75) and the animated 80s classic, The Centurions: Part II (1986) - part man, part machine all awesome. Next we segue into three from the sensational Marion Davies including The Floradora Girl (1930), Not So Dumb (1930), and Peg O' My Heart (1933). We cap things off with some cutting edge cinema including the caper film, A Fine Pair (1968) starring Rock Hudson and Claudia Cardinale, Peter O'Toole and Susannah York in the dark comedy Brotherly Love (1970) and the seminal Blaxpoitation crime drama, Melinda (1972) with Calvin Lockhart and the kung-fu stylings of Jim Kelly.
