With Krista

Good Music from Bad Films

This episode focuses on the tireless efforts of soundtrack curators to slip good music into terrible movies. Nicolas Cage makes several appearances, as does Radiohead. We try to answer these questions:

Why was Faceoff made? Why was another version of it made in 2016 with Kevin Costner? Why is the same rare Arab Disco track in both Criminal and Place in the Pines?

Today's Filmscapes is hosted by substitute DJ Krista from Habitat Enrichment. Feel free to drop your good music/bad film requests in the chat.
