This episode, we’re on the lam with Humphrey Bogart and Harrison Ford! We’ve got a deep dive into the Bogie led film noir “Dark Passage” and the 90’s classic “The Fugitive”. What made us want to pair these two movies together? Because it could be that they were both based on the same source material, the book by pulp writer extraordinaire David Goodis!
Goodis famously sued the producers of The Fugitive TV show for copyright infringement. Did he have a case? Have a listen to find out! Court cases aside, “Dark Passage” is a fun movie to talk about, with its first person POV camera inviting you to make eye contact with the always elegant and captivating Lauren Bacall. Plus, we’ll detail the unrelenting chase through every henhouse, outhouse, and doghouse that Tommy Lee Jones undertakes as he pursues Harrison Ford and winds up finding an Academy Award for Best Supporting Actor.
