About this listen

"Is white guilt going to make me forget that I'm running a business?"

Tanner finally gets a day in the sun when Elmore Leonard's novel, Rum Punch gets reimagined by the South Bay's finest filmmaker, Quentin Tarantino.

Topics include Tanner's enduring affection for this movie, Robert DeNiro's (quietly) commanding performance, whether or not Jackie Brown succeeds as a hang-out film, Elmore Leonard's tips for writing, and his desire to evoke comparisons to Ernest Hemingway over Raymond Chandler. Matt also airs his grievances about Once Upon a Time in Hollywood, to which Tanner offers a comprehensive rebuttal.

We finish the episode by drafting our top 5 combined QT/PTA films. Riveting.
