ABOUT THIS EPISODE
In this electrifying episode of *Film Lag*, Nick introduces Chris to the cult classic *Highlander* (1986), featuring the legendary Sean Connery. As Chris experiences the film for the very first time, the duo dives deep into its key elements:
- The blessing and the curse of being immortal. What would you do with it? Could you handle such a gift?
- The magic of being a Highlander. Does it resemble a certain other sci-fi franchise?
- The mystery of how immortals fund their lavish lifestyle across the ages. Beanie Babies? Pokemon cards?
- Sean Connery’s memorable turn as Juan Sánchez-Villalobos Ramírez. Who came up with that role and backstory?
With banter, insights, and nostalgia aplenty, this is one conversation you won’t want to miss. Tune in to find out if Chris thinks “there can be only one!” and Nick can resist rocking out to the all-Queen soundtrack! ⚔️
