'A gentle crime caper without consequences'
On this episode, Anna is joined by 'the luckiest man in the world' - her husband Alan - to discuss Breaking In, Bill Forsyth's often overlooked sixth film (and the only one he didn't write the screenplay for).
Scripted by indie writer and director John Sayles, but still with the warmth and feel of a fully-formed Forsyth film, the plot centres on veteran safe-cracker Ernie Mullins (Burt Reynolds) who encounters rookie criminal Mike (Casey Siemaszko) and takes him under his wing.
Anna and Alan discuss Bill Forsyth films as a rites of passage towards true love, small town America in the late 1980s, gentleman thieves, and unconventional companionship.
