Coolest Classics - Robert Rodriguez’s “Desperado” Sep 22, 2024

Show notes

“Sometimes there’s a film… I won’t say a masterpiece, ‘cause what’s a masterpiece? But sometimes there’s a film. And I’m talkin’ about the “Desperardo" here. Sometimes there’s a film that, well, it’s the film for its time and place. It fits right in there. And that’s the “Desperado”, for the career of Robert Rodriguez, Antonio Banderas, Salma Hayek, Danny Trejo & MORE! And even if the film is already beloved by millions – and the “Desperado” most certainly is. But sometimes there’s a film… sometimes, there’s a film. Aw. I lost my train of thought here. But – aw, hell. I’ve done introduced it enough.” - Jesse Blaze Snider, the Coolest Narrator Alive
