Recovered heads to Cape Fear
Grab your Panama hat, warm up the houseboat, and keep a weather eye out for rakes, because Recovered is heading to Cape Fear! Dan and Keith head back to the 1960s, when Gregory Peck produced an adaptation of the novel The Executioners only to get out-acted by Robert Mitchum and end up bankrupting his own production company. Three decades (ish) later, film legend Martin Scorsese takes a crack at the same story, with Robert De Niro Facing off with Nick Nolte. Along the way we dissect how expected morality levels shifted over the decades, along with what level of nobility audiences expected from their protagonists, character actress Illeana Douglas gets praised, and a certain someone has some hot takes for Marty Scorsese. Someone named Keith. Which version is better? One of the answers may surprise you.
