I was excited to discuss Black Gunn, a 1972 Jim Brown film directed by Robert Hartford-Davis, who of course made Corruption, which is not a women’s picture. This episode has so much movie talk and discussion of just how much Jim Brown means as the first black action hero, Hartford-Davis’ incredibly scummy UK history working with the Ford brothers and his lost movie Nobody Ordered Love, Luciana Paluzzi’s Italian movies and Thunderball, Bruce Glover being way bigger than we imagined, Gary Conway being Rick Dalton and Tony Giorgio being the devil in Night Train to Terror.
This was so much fun to do and I appreciate Phil editing how much I go on and on, which can’t be easy.
