About this listen

As self-professed film nerds, HCC film professors Marie Westhaver and Mike Giuliano were primed to see "Highest 2 Lowest," director Spike Lee's reworking of the classic 1963 Akira Kurosawa film "High and Low." In this podcast episode, Marie and Mike talk about what's the same and what's different in the two versions. Although they often agree to disagree on the merits of the new version, they agree that Denzel Washington and Jeffrey Wright give strong performances in the central roles. Marie and Mike also talk about director Ethan Coen's "Honey Don't," a hectic film noir-ish comedy in which Margaret Qualley plays a detective with plenty to investigate. Our critics think the busy storyline mostly falls flat, but the lead performance is entertaining. Listen to more episodes of At The Movies here Now available on YouTube!
