"Is it a crime of passion, or an act of treason?"
In this extract from 'Two Geeks And A Marketing Podcast' Pascal Fintoni and Roger Edwards celebrate the recording of their 100th film marketing review with a classic thriller chosen by one of their guests!
We look at the marketing for this 1987 edge of the seat political thriller, from the original trailer to the official Lobby Cards and the different photography used to promote 'No Way Out' to the press and media.
We of course spent time reminiscing about the great storyline and the captivating performances from Kevin Costner, Gene Hackman, Sean Young and Will Patton whose character is essential to make the film work!
Finally, we ask how different things could have turned out had they marketed this as an erotic thriller?
