We're back!
Film critic and friend Charles Bramesco joins Manuela to talk about the inspiring and mind-boggling talent of Nicolas Cage, who since the 80s has been bringing his maximalist acting style to shake up Hollywood. They discuss in particular Martin Scorsese's BRINGING OUT THE DEAD, John Woo's FACE/OFF and Panos Cosmatos's MANDY, and how each of these films reveals a different register for Cage to inhabit and reinvent.

Leaving Las Vegas and Moonstruck alone chisel Cage in the great tablets of actors.

Thought-provoking. Added to my appreciation of this most scintillating actor!

Also i agree with what yall said about performance quality in "bringing out the dead" i saw it and fell in love with it immediately because it was so great yet tense & bizarre. Second viewing wasnt as good too me but i still love how captivated i was the 1st time seeing it.

Gotta see "Joe" its a newer cage film but my absolute fav film from him. I also heard & seen on interviews how nice he is. Absolute genius, great podcast vid

Bramesco looks like someone Tim Ballard would arrest.
