Chinatown

Published: April 15, 2021, 7:03 p.m.

This month we're taking a look at films that Chris hasn't seen, and most of them are going to be some of the true classics of the medium including the first film of the month: Chinatown. Featuring Jack Nicholson and Faye Dunaway, it follows Nicholson as J.J. Gittes, a private eye who is approached by a wife who is convinced that her husband is sleeping around on her. He is then drawn into a web of intrigue, murder, and water that can only end in one place: Chinatown. Screenwriter Richard Hatem and Pulp Serenade's Cullen Gallagher join Chris to talk about the film, Nicholson's performance, and the ill-guided sequel The Two Jakes.
