Ep. 9 - Bound (1996)

This week, we dig into one of the all-time great debut directorial efforts, BOUND (#10 on the board). Lana and Lilly Wachowski show us a glimpse of what they are capable of, right before they go off to make one of the greatest films of all time, THE MATRIX (1999). Don't dismiss this as "just the one before THE MATRIX" like we did for too long. This would be the best film in most other filmmaker's careers.
