Bonus: Madonna Movie-cast (Part II) - Dick Tracy
80 of the 80s Music Podcast
What’s so intriguing about Dick? Sure, it's bursting with color and cartoon villains, but is it really for kids? Perhaps there’s a quiet layer of mid-life emptiness lurking under the primary lights, snazzy costumes, Madonna’s torch songs—along with her brazen banter and boobage. The Notorious J.A.M. and CK-1 dig past the dozens of celebrity cameos and the massive marketing machine—and ask the big question: Can this yellow-coated hero ever step out from under the long, dark shadow of Batman?
