ReconCinemation

The ReconCinemation team is back and they're getting controversial with a look back at Dennis Hopper's COLORS! Jon, David & Brent take a deep dive into many racial tones of the 1988 film.  From incredible performances by Sean Penn & Robert Duvall to Dennis Hopper's return to the Director's chair to gang violence in LA in the mid-80s to the many familiar faces in the cast (Don Cheadle! Mario Lopez!) and more! Plus, our early memories of the film, Penn's volatile lifestyle at the time (and why Jon used to be afraid of him), where this falls in Duvall's career and how this story, told from a white, pro-police, anti-gang perspective holds up in 2021.

 

Two cops. Two gangs. Three Podcasters. One hell of a war... it's COLORS!
