Demolition Man (1993) and Brassed Off! (1996)
In the latest episode of Film Stories with Simon Brew, Simon heads back to the 1990s! Demolition Man (1993) was the second building block in a Sylvester Stallone career revival, following the same year's Cliffhanger. But it wasn't an easy production - and its director would never direct again. Brassed Off! (1996) meanwhile was expected to be a small British film with little reach beyond the area in which it was set. Plus, it faced the challenge of telling a real life story of a town still facing serious ramifications. What would happen when the filmmakers turned up? Stories of both are discussed in this episode... Find Simon on Twitter at @simonbrew, and the podcast can be found at @filmstoriespod. You can find the Film Stories website Film Stories.
