In this episode of the show we are beginning our November exploration of the professional partnership between Jason Statham and Guy Ritchie. Thus, we begin with their debut, the 1998 Lock, Stock and Two Smoking Barrels. Over the course of our conversation you will hear us talk about the influence of Quentin Tarantino, Kevin Smith and Robert Rodriguez making a mark on British cinema, the complexity of the film's plot and the ridiculousness of its comedy. We also talk about Statham's straight man energy, the many differences between US and UK cinema and much more!
Tune in and enjoy!
