In this episode of the Cinematic Flashback Podcast, Chuck and co-host Matt Sargent take a thrilling ride through The Great Train Robbery (1978), directed by Michael Crichton and starring Sean Connery, Donald Sutherland, and Lesley-Anne Down. Set in Victorian England, this stylish caper follows a team of master thieves as they attempt an audacious heist aboard a moving train. Chuck and Matt break down the film’s clever set pieces, its historical inspirations, and Crichton’s unique approach to blending suspense with charm. They also explore how The Great Train Robbery fits into the heist genre of the era and whether its mix of wit and adventure still holds up today in the Did It Groove or Lose Its Beat? segment. Plus, Wayne Whited joins the show to review Jerry Goldsmith’s excellent score. Oh, and you might learn a thing or two about riding side saddle! Hop aboard for a fun and insightful discussion on one of the decade’s most entertaining capers.
