S16 Ep859: City of Angels (1998)

“He’s the best part of this movie” - Chris on Dennis Franz

On this week’s show, Remake-ril heads to Los Angeles as we chat about the sappy Hollywood remake, City of Angels!

A reimagining of Wim Wenders’ 1987 masterpiece, Wings of Desire, this film features Nicholas Cage as the lovelorn angel… Seth? How great, truly, is Dennis Franz in this movie? Why couldn’t they have kept Meg’s character a trapeze artist instead of switching it to a doctor? Should these angels be watching stuff like bath tub shenanigans? How weird is it to hear Sarah McLachlin’s “Angel” when that dog PSA isn’t on your TV? Does Colm Feore’s character give one of the worst movie marriage proposals of all time? And was that Michael Mann as the cigarette-smoking bar extra? PLUS: What a Rolling Rock commercial!

City of Angels stars Meg Ryan, Nicholas Cage, Andre Braugher, Colm Feore, Robin Bartlett, Joanna Merlin, and Dennis Franz as Mr. Messinger; directed by Brad Silberling.
