“I don’t want to be a product of my podcast. I want my podcast to be a product of me.”
Martin Scorsese’s highly anticipated “The Irishman” is almost here, and it’s already garnered plenty of Oscar buzz. In honor of this exciting new release, we’ve decided to cover the film that finally won the director his first Oscar – the 2006 film “The Departed”! The film is a classic Scorsese crime story, following an undercover cop and a mole in the Boston PD, seeking each other out in an enthralling cat and mouse chase. In this podcast, we talk about the film’s excellent direction and heightened tension, more about the Oscars, as well as what the film could have been given potentially different casting. Are you ready to ship up to Boston? Then give the 56th episode of the UW Film Club Podcast a listen now!
