<description>&lt;p&gt;Welcome to &lt;em&gt;Highbrow Lowbrow&lt;/em&gt;, the show where our podcast hosts Steve Powell and Dan Slattery pit high art against low culture.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;In this special episode devoted to the work of actor/dancer/writer and director Christopher Walken, we look at two of Walken’s finest performances.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Dan’s highbrow pick is &lt;em&gt;At Close Range&lt;/em&gt;, in which Walken’s psychopath gang leader comes undone when his son, played by Sean Penn, does not inherit the sins of the father.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Steve’s lowbrow choice is the James Bond film &lt;em&gt;A View To A Kill&lt;/em&gt;, in which he argues that Walken’s performance as the villainous Max Zorin has made this formerly underrated Bond film become one of the most loved additions to the series.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;We hope our choices do justice to Mr Walken’s extraordinary career. Beware spoilers and enjoy the show...&lt;/p&gt;

Steve’s lowbrow choice is the James Bond film A View To A Kill, in which he argues that Walken’s performance as the villainous Max Zorin has made this formerly underrated Bond film become one of the most loved additions to the series.
