Ep118 – We Were Recording When Something Wild Happened

Something Wild

Something Wild is an interesting film that expertly changes tone without a jarring shift. The film is directed by Jonathan Damme. A free-spirited woman, Melanie Griffith’s character, convinces a straight laced yuppie, Jeff Daniels, for a weekend of “adventure”. The fun quickly takes a dangerous turn when her ex-convict husband, Ray Liotta in his first role.
