Description

In this episode, Chris is joined by Greg and Murph, co-hosts of The Weekly Podcast Massacre, to delve into the 1990 film The Two Jakes, a legacy sequel to Chinatown. They discuss the troubled production history of the movie directed by and starring Jack Nicholson, analyzing its narrative, performances, and how it compares to its predecessor. The conversation touches on the difficulty of recapturing the magic of classic noir films and the impact of nostalgia on audience expectations. The episode concludes with a Jeopardy-style game called 'More than Jake.'
