Die Hard is the Sequel to the Book Seven Samurai Wrote on Action

Die Hard landed in 1988 among a murderer's row of great movies, and came out of it as perhaps the most iconic of them all. It was a coming out party for Bruce Willis the action star and Alan Rickman the villain, and invented a whole new sub-genre of bottle episode action cinema. Clint, Cal, and Alex discuss how John McTiernan learned all the right things from Akira Kurosawa action, why the movie doesn't matter if it isn't about marriage, and how Alex can't keep holding her grudge against the movie.
