152: Let's do it! To it! | Leaving Las Vegas (1995)

This was a somber episode. Leaving Las Vegas has been on my list to watch for so long and I just had to be in a certain mood. Turns out this was that time. I had long heard of this performance that won Nicolas Cage his Lead Actor Oscar in 1995 but I never expected to be hit this emotionally hard by a film. Me and Charles talk the cinematography and the different side of Vegas, how Nic Cage prepared for a role like this, Elisabeth Shue's fashion, and some interesting behind the scenes bits. Off-Topic rants include: Tom Cruise tiffs, Barbie and Oppenheimer, Kelly Bundy: fashion icon--- Get BONUS episodes on 90s TV and culture (Freaks & Geeks, My So Called Life, Buffy, 90s culture documentaries, and more...) and to support the show join the  Patreon! GIVE US A 5 STAR RATING & SUBSCRIBE!Hosts: Lauren @lauren_melanie & Charles @charleshaslam Music by Den-Mate @imdenmateFollow Fashion Grunge Podcast Substack The Lo Down: a Fashion Grunge blog/newsletterInstagram @fashiongrungepodTwitter @fgrungepodLetterboxd Fashion Grunge PodcastTikTok @fashiongrungepod
