Say Hello to My Little Film: Episode 209 - Streets of Fire
Manage episode 480668790 series 3551616
We're kicking off May on SAY HELLO TO MY LITTLE FILM with a bang as Rob brings to the table Walter Hill's 1984 rock n' roll fable STREETS OF FIRE! This genre bending classic features Michael Pare (EDDIE AND THE CRUISERS, THE PHILIDELPHIA EXPERIMENT) as Tom Cody, an ex-military solider enlisted to track down his ex-girlfriend and local rock star Ellen Aim (played by DIANE LANE) after she's kidnapped by local biker gang, The Bombers. With stellar supporting performances by Willem Dafoe (POOR THINGS, NOSFERATU) and Rick Moranis (HONEY, I SHRUNK THE KIDS, LITTLE SHOP OF HORRORS) and a kicking soundtrack which launched the Dan Hartman hit "I CAN DREAM ABOUT YOU", Streets of Fire is a rollicking action flick that defies all categorization!
Will the mix of genres in Streets of Fire prove too much for Ray? Or will the soundtrack lure him in like a siren on the sea? Tune in this week to find out!
