'Colors' [1988] - Wackoe, CE Garcia & Gabe "The Calilobo."

Starring Robert Duvall and Sean Penn as two LAPD officers caught between community tensions and their own clashing ideologies, the film sparked debate upon release for its raw portrayal of gang life. Listen as we explore its legacy, impact, where it falls in the landscape of late '80s crime dramas, and just how dated the film has become.
