Ever since Marshall Craig was taken from us on December 18, 2020, his mother Carla Craig has worked tirelessly with his friends and loved ones to ensure his memory lives on. So far, this has lead to his massive book collection being donated to the library at his Alumni, The California University Of Pennsylvania, a bench installed at a park where he loved to see the sunset, and the beginnings of a charity called Marshall’s Revolution.
This is a year long miniseries designed by The Pop Break Staff Writer Sam Niles to progress his memory by having some discussions about movies in Marshall’s collection. Marshall has an incredible collection and could talk for hours about film, so some of his friends got together and made a podcast to invite guests with both a passion and knowledge for film to discuss selections from his collection once a month.
This episode of Marshall’s Movies welcomes guest Patrick O’Brien to celebrate a film that Marshall would have never expected to like on paper, and yet it came to be one of his favorite comedies. Hot Fuzz, written and directed by Edgar Wright and starring Simon Pegg, Nick Frost, Academy Award Winner Olivia Coleman, and Timothy Dalton, the film walks the line between satire of action comedies and an excellent installment of the genre brilliantly, and Sam & Patrick dive into what makes the film such a success and why it meant so much to Marshall.
