In this episode we continue our theme of Comebacks with a look at Kathryn Bigelow and Robert Downey Jr. and the films The Hurt Locker and Sherlock Holmes.
We begin with a discussion on war films, Kathryn Bigelow’s choice of style and some characters we love to hate.
We then move into Sherlock Holmes and Robert Downey Jr. We discuss whether or not Downey Jr. needs to play someone other than himself in a film and our overall takes on this actionized version of the famous literary character.
