Listen "Episode 317 - Luc Besson’s Subway"
Episode Synopsis
It’s all neon gloss and kinetic pacing in this peak 80s early outing from writer/direct Luc Besson (Fifth Element)! And it is French! We get a pre-Highlander Christopher Lambert as a lost soul on the run from both the cops and the mob, hiding out in the Paris subway tunnels among a community of social outcasts and petty thieves. There is not much more to it than that. But again, it looks terrific, which is all we really expected anyway from Monsieur Besson.
