  • Episode 80 - Enemy of the State
    Dec 1 2024
    December is here! While we're not quite yet in the full festive swing of things at We Love Dad Movies, that's just a great excuse to spotlight another Big Coat movie - and one that has a Christmassy setting at that! This week, Ewan is joined by wonderful podcasting extraordinaires Matt Bledsoe and James Coddington to discuss Tony Scott's prophetic 1998 banger Enemy of the State - a film as bristling with Big Coats and cold weather as it is with surveillance anxieties and millennium dread. Where does it sit within Scott's filmography, and in the canon of Will Smith's nineties peak? For answers to those questions and more, come along and spend a cosy hour with the WLDM podcast!

  • Episode 79 - The Firm
    Nov 28 2024

    It's been All Quiet on the Western Front here at We Love Dad Movies as we adjust to those dark, stormy nights, but we've managed to sneak in a couple of episodes on a theme we've teased in the past before we step into Christmas - The BIG COAT Movie!


    Devoted to those cosy nineties offerings where the cast is draped top to bottom in coats that make you go "Oooo, that looks well nice!", we'll be looking at legal thrillers, espionage thrillers, and... well it's just two films, but they're great I promise!


    First up: Ewan and Dan cover a gem of a film we wanted to discuss for its 30th anniversary last year but didn't get the chance to - Sydney Pollack's stylish and suspenseful adaptation of John Grisham's novel, The Firm. Starring Tom Cruise and Gene Hackman, Pollack pulls all of those paranoid seventies-era impulses together for a gripping post-mortem on the excess and greed of the Reagan years. Cruise and Hackman are also joined by Ed Harris, Wilford Brimley, Holly Hunter, Gary Busey, Tobin Bell AND David Straithairn, and yes, that does mean it has the best cast ever.


    Full spoilers ahead for this one folks, so if you haven't seen The Firm yet, PLEASE DO. It's our platonic ideal of a nineties thriller, and a highlight from Cruise's filmography that doesn't get spoken about nearly as much as it should.
