We’re back! Sort of…



Dave and his daughter Mary have revived the Fansplainers banner for a new mini-series – they’re going to go through all the Mission: Impossible films in anticipation of the release of Mission: Impossible – Final Reckoning on May 23.



This week they begin at the beginning with the first Mission: Impossible movie, released in 1996 – directed by the quirky Brian De Palma, written by old hand Robert Towne and produced by Tom Cruise with his new production partner Paula Wagner.



Briefly starring Emilio Estevez, Kristin Scott Thomas, and Ingeborga Dapkūnaitė. It also features Tom Cruise, Jon Voight, Emmanuelle Béart, Henry Czerny, Ving Rhames, Jean Reno, and a fun turn from Vanessa Redgrave.



Thanks for listening!
