Welcome to Rewind & Replay — the show where we dig up forgotten gems, cult classics, and old-school hits to see if they still hold up today. Movies are generally from the 70s, 80s, and 90s, with the occasional 2000s mixed in.

In this episode, we dive into a wonderful and often forgotten gem: Dick Tracy (1990)!

Dick Tracy is a vibrant pulp fantasy that brings comic panels to life with bold colors, big villains, and even bigger ambition.

Set in 1938, detective Dick Tracy confronts mob kingpin Big Boy Caprice while juggling romantic complexities with Breathless Mahoney and Tess Trueheart, all while becoming a guardian to a street orphan known as “Kid.”
