Deadfall (1993) | That's High Praise: A Nicolas Cage Podcast #1

Among the forgotten ruins of cinema lies the 1993 film, Deadfall. Deadfall depicts the story of a grieving son, who is also a con man, who gets roped into one more score with his uncle. He just happens to encounter a decent amount of strangeness along the way. It happens said strangeness includes a pool shark noir villain in Morgan “Fatts” Grip (Charlie Sheen), a James Bond parody villain (Angus Scrimm) and Nicolas Cage’s bizarre standout character, Eddie. Eddie is among some of the weirder moments in this paint-by-numbers thriller. Is Deadfall worthy of high praise?
