Uncover the Untold Secrets Behind Re-inventing the Western with Joe Cornet on SYS Podcast Episode 538

Well, it’s like, you know, Steve McQueen is one of my favorite actors, okay? But you can talk about Bullet, which is an obvious choice because it’s a great movie. You could also talk about The Getaway, which is one of my favorite Peckinpah films because it’s a great movie. But every film book that includes a chapter on McQueen talks about Bullet. And if they don’t talk about Bullet, they talk about The Getaway. So, I’m thinking, okay, in a case like this, why not Papillon? Papillon influenced me. When I first saw that as a kid, I’m like, my God, what a story. And he’s so perfect in that. And nobody really talks about that movie. That may have been one of his finest acting jobs in his career, you know? So that’s where I’m kind of taking a different approach to these films.
