THE NICE GUYS
Cinema Shock Roulette #5
It's time for another Cinema Shock Roulette episode! In these episodes, an episode from our source list is chosen at random, only this time fate has chosen a film that ties into a past Cinema Shock series!
Back at the end of 2021, we released a four-part series called Black Christmas, in which we discussed the Christmas-set films of writer/director Shane Black. One film we didn't discuss during that episode is Black's 2016 film THE NICE GUYS.
Well, now it's time to do just that. In this episode, we'll trace the production of THE NICE GUYS from conception to release, and discuss the film's legacy as a part of Black's filmography.
