In this episode of the show we are continuing our July chats about buddy cop action movies from the 80s with Stakeout. Over the course of our conversation you will hear us talk about John Badham as a journeyman director whose success was tied to the quality of the script, Richard Dreyfuss and Emilio Estevez as a pair of cops who differ only a little and the concept of Rear Window meeting a rom-com as a vehicle for a successful blockbuster. We also talk about Dreyfuss not recognizing a line from Jaws, the practicality of doing pranks while undercover, the importance of establishing a solid villain and the film's divisive ending in a sawmill.
