About this episode
On this episode, film archivist and adult-movie enthusiast Justin LaLiberty (of Vinegar Syndrome ) unleashes the Dogg for his four Letterboxd faves: Showdown in Little Tokyo ; Bones ; Breathless (the Richard Gere remake); and SexWorld . We also discuss the wildly underrated action star Dolph Lundren, the wildly underrated director Ernest R. Dickerson, why it’s stupid that remakes get a bad rap, the experience of seeing Cronenberg’s Crash far too young, working in video stores and movie theaters, Justin’s recent curatorial work on Letterboxd’s adult titles, and—again!—why Babe: Pig in the City is a five-star film.
