Crime 101 (Featuring Wes Clark)

About this episode

Wes Clark joins the podcast to discuss the action thriller Crime 101 and its influences.

On the 509th episode of Piecing It Together, Wes Clark joins me to talk about Crime 101. Like the title says, this is a straight up, throwback, old school, meat & potatoes kind of action thriller... The kind of movie we all say we wish they'd make more of. Puzzle pieces include Heat, Den Of Thieves, Hell or High Water and Thief. As always, SPOILER ALERT for  Crime 101  and the movies we discuss!
