Author and all-around fantastic guy, Jason Pargin, joins the boys on the road to unpacking the themes, production, and structure of 2002’s Road to Perdition. They talk gangster movies, anti-heroes, and the fact that Jason is definitely not a murderer.

Nah nah, would always prefer to be corrected, knowing what words mean is rad as hell. Still works symbolism-wise tho!

Not to be a pedant, but Perdition means damnation and destruction. (This movie lead me to look it up)
Sandacious .
Doesn't perdition mean irreversible damnation?
Kelsey Grammar Ghost
Was it Dana Carvey that did the Road to Perdition bit?

In the Unforgiven vs Perdition comparison, I agree that clint eastwoods face sells the old retired demon backstory than tom hanks, especially looking as young as he retroactively looks.

Unforgiven doesn't need to show Clint Eastwood killing tons of people because they showed that in every other movie Clint Eastwood was in. It was meta.

Massively underrated film. Doesn’t get the love it deserves. Everyone playing against type. I love this film. I hope you guys do too!
