Description

Welcome back to your favorite podcast about some of the biggest bombs in film history. On this week’s show, we welcome Michael Mann back to the podcast and discuss his 1999 biographical drama - The Insider. The film is a fictionalized telling of whistleblower Jeffery Wigand’s dealings with “Big Tobacco.” The Insider was praised by both the audience and the critics and was even nominated for seven Academy Awards. However, this did not translate to financial success and the film went home with zero Oscar statues. Do we agree with the critical response, or is The Insider a Bomb? Download to find out.The Insider is directed by Michael Mann and stars Al Pacino, Russell Crowe, Christopher Plummer, Diane Venora, Philip Baker Hall, Lindsay Crouse, and Debi MazarIf you want to leave feedback or suggest a movie bomb, please drop us a line at NotABombPod@gmail.com or Contact Us - here.
