Description

<p>The podcast returns to take a dive into the 1985 film "On The Edge" starring Bruce Dern.&nbsp;</p> <p>From Rotten Tomatoes: <em>"Banned from competition 20 years ago for exposing payoffs in amateur athletics, former long-distance runner Wes Holman (Bruce Dern) decides to enter the Cielo-Sea Race, a punishing, mountainous footrace in the Pacific Northwest. The competition has bested many younger runners, but by seeking the help of his old coach (John Marley) and reconnecting with his ex-lover (Pam Grier) and father (Bill Bailey), the middle-aged Wes may be ready to take on more than a race."</em></p> <p>✩ Follow CITIUS MAG: twitter.com/CitiusMag | instagram.com/citiusmag | facebook.com/citiusmag</p> <p>✩ Connect with Jesse and the show via Email: [email protected] | twitter.com/tracksuperfan</p>
