Hard Boiled & Basic Instinct

Fans of lewdness and vulgarity: look no further! This edition of Overlapping Dialogue, in continuing our journey through the loud and proud 1990s, spotlights two of the decade's most stylish entries with Hard Boiled and Basic Instinct. But before we dive face-first into the carnage, our Blue Plate Special sampling forces us to confront the passing of iconic (albeit fictional) TV and screen legend Rick Dalton, offer up some brief thoughts on new releases Hypnotic and Peter Pan & Wendy, and analyze from afar a host of headlines emanating from the 2023 Cannes Film Festival. After trashing Jonathan Debt (enemy of the pod) yet again for his latest spewing of excrement, we arrive to our pulpy double feature presentation: listen as we marvel at the gleeful insanity of John Woo's wild Hong Kong actioner and savor the paperback profundity intrinsic to Paul Verhoeven's direction of stars Michael Douglas and Sharon Stone.
