"Highest 2 Lowest" & "High and Low"
Update: 2025-09-11
Description
A study released last October showed that movie remakes tend to lose money. Yet the film industry, for a variety of reasons, keeps churning them out. On this week’s show, Dan Webster, Mary Pat Treuthart and Nathan Weinbender discuss one recent remake, Spike Lee’s film “Highest 2 Lowest,” which is his version of Ed McBain’s 1959 novel “King’s Ransom,” as well as take a look back at another McBain adaptation, Japanese filmmaker Akira Kurosawa’s 1963 film “High and Low.”
