Shownotes

Gary Oldman has got some severed hands in the freezer, but don't worry, it's not weird. It's just for doin' crimes and stuff.

The Mikes are taking a look at the 1990 crime drama State of Grace also starring Sean Penn, Ed Harris, and Robin Wright.

Mike Butler isn't a huge fan of this movie; from the Wright's unnecessary female love interest, to the overused "cop too deep undercover plot," the relationships have with Oldman's unhinged character and more. Field is a fan of the look, setting, and score, but also has some issues with the way Ed Harris' mob boss character is handled.

So, grab your popcorn and soda, please notice the exits to the left and right of you and settle down for Forgotten Cinema
