Listen "EP111 - Colours (1988)"
Episode Synopsis
Step into the sun-bleached chaos of 1980s Los Angeles with this week’s Retro Guardians deep dive into Colors (1988) — the gritty gangland crime drama that gave us Sean Penn with a chip on his shoulder and Robert Duvall with a heart worn thin. Directed by Dennis Hopper, this film didn't just walk into controversy — it painted it in bold red and blue. We’re digging beneath the surface of this raw, realistic portrayal of gang violence, street loyalty, and the blurred lines between protector and predator. From Ice-T’s unforgettable title track to the film's influence on urban cinema and real-life community tensions, we’re unpacking the colors that stained a generation.
