In this episode of the show our trip through the professional collaborations of Peter Berg and Mark Wahlberg continues with a conversation about Deepwater Horizon. Over the course of our chat you will hear us talk about the many problems getting this movie off the ground, the place of a disaster movie genre in the modern landscape of entertainment and the problem of sensitivity when depicting recent events. We also talk about Berg’s attempt at workplace realism, Wahlberg’s swagger, John Malkovich’s sweat stains and how important it is to give a big blockbuster a beating heart.

Tune in and enjoy!
