Episode 316 of the GenreCast continues the marathon of The Man Called Keanu. Last week, we discussed River's Edge, this week, we're talking all about the 1994 action hit, Speed. Keanu is joined once again by Dennis Hopper, but Sandra Bullock and Jeff Daniels both appear as well. The high-stakes hit has a simple premise, which is executed well. After our quick reviews and syllabus expansion, we talk about suspense and thrills in genre, the masculinity presented by Keanu, commodification of people and much more. Tune in now to hear our thoughts on Speed.
