Film Pigeons Episode 124: La Haine, Lethal Weapon
It is the episode of hate for the Film Pigeons as we review two more 'l' films and enjoy some Jason based trivia. Our films are:
La Haine - The title literally means hate! Does this French film on societal injustice fill us with that aforementioned hate?
Lethal Weapon - Voted "Hollywood's most hate filled man" three years in a row Mel Gibson had some of his earliest success teaming up with Danny Glover in buddy cop films. Can his mad judo skills flip this film into our hearts?
