Episode Synopsis
Send us a textS2 E10 THE GOOD AND EVIL SANCTION. Midnight in the Garden of Good and Evil is Eastwood's second movie in 1997 (preceded by next episode's Absolute Power). Based on the blockbuster true crime (the title of a film in LAST week's episode) novel of the same name by John Berendt. John Cusack has the unenviable job of acting alongside the director's daughter, Allison Eastwood, as he meets wacky southern characters and future problematic poster boy Kevin Spacey, in full "Ah say Ah say" mode. There is a murder trial and a garden but not a murder trial inside a garden where the tomatoes throw themselves at a lying witness - it's the movie we need, not the movie we want.1975's The Eiger Sanction is also based on a blockbuster novel of the same name by the mysterious Trevanian (kind of a 1970s satiric thriller version of QAnon but clearly labeled as fiction). Clint trained his ass off to prep for this movie about spies, assassins, mountain climbing and George Kennedy. He plays a retired assassin called back into the game because... it's personal. Duh. Someone is going to kill someone on a big mountain and... it doesn't make a lot of sense but plays into Eastwood's natural affinity for rugged, physical filmmaking. Ken and Jack are joined by famed songstress and beauty Andi to discuss both films. Then a rundown of season two favorites and least favorites. Probably some google reviews. Maybe a marriage or a birth or a shooting to get y'all to come back for S3. THE EIGER SANCTION: 00:02:54MIDNIGHT IN THR GARDEN OF GOOD AND EVIL: 00:29:00S2 WRAP UP: 01:00:02
