About this listen
My guest today is Max Glenn. Max is an artist and educator whose byline most recently includes a Reservoir Dogs retrospective for The Spool. Max is an accomplished theater actor and scholar with a deep devotion to both craft and theory. He is a former colleague of mine, a dear friend, and my go to guy when I want to head to the theater to see The Batman or Top Gun Maverick.
Max’s favorite movie is the 2007 action comedy Hot Fuzz. Hot Fuzz follows ambitious London police officer Nick Angel, portrayed with comedic rigidity by a career-best Simon Pegg, who wrote the script with Edgar Wright. Angel is too competent for his own good - his punctilious record is a threat to his sleepy superiors. His colleagues send him on a seemingly dull assignment to an idyllic country town, but Angel soon uncovers a web of murderous conspiracy that encourages viewers to consider the price of utopia as well as the conventions and contrivances of the buddy cop genre.
