Hi, it's Diamond Feit! We've got another patron request episode this week, and like last time, I feel like Allan Berry is really twisting my arm here: A podcast about a movie? Set in New York? Jeez, I'm way out of my wheelhouse here, but for you Allan, I'll stretch my legs.
I kid, I kid. Really, this topic proved to be the perfect excuse to bring back cinephile James Eldred to the podcast, given that he hosts his very own show all about old movies called Cinema Oblivia. I've been a guest multiple times, and we've talked about everything from forgotten star-studded action comedies from the 1970s to the work of Japanese director Takashi Miike.
But that's not all, folks: I also reached out to two more experts, Diana Goodman and Mikel Reparaz, because this week we're not just talking about The Warriors (1979), we're also covering The Warriors (PS2, Xbox, 2005), a video game based on Walter Hill's classic about a small gang trying to survive the night when every other gang in New York City targets them for trouble.
