Episode 80 Dick Tracy

Happy New Year! We kick off 2020 with the first of our four-part series on (and stay with me here) movies from the 1990s that are based/inspired by heroes of the 1930s that we are reviewing in 2020. Whew! Everyone get that? Great! We start our series off with the 1990 film "Dick Tracy" which was produced-by, directed-by, and starring Warren Beatty in the role of the titular detective. Along with Beatty is an all-star cast including Al Pacino, Madonna, Glenne Headly, Charlie Korsmo, Paul Sorvino, William Forsythe, and Dustin Hoffman. And that doesn't even count the cameos! So how does it hold up after 30 years? Is Dick Tracy still knocking out the bizarre bad guys or has this slipped comfortably into a desk job? Check out our take on the Video Junkyard Podcast!
