Show Notes

With the worldwide success of Tim Burton's 1989 Batman, studios were frothing at the mouth to get their hands on any comic book property.  Well Warren Beatty got his mits on the 1930 comic strip Dick Tracy and turned it into a big screen marvel.  The costume's, the makeup, the art direction was absolutely on point.  Beatty stars as Dick Tracy and does a formidable job as the lead.  Flanked with him his Madonna playing Breathless Mahoney and she did a superb job....well....it's actually not far off from her music persona, but I digress.  And we can't forget Al Pacino's portrayal of Big Boy, who really steals the show here.  Take a listen as we take a deep dive (not with concrete) into this 90's noire classic.
