From deep within the kitchen of a rotating restaurant in beautiful downtown Detroit, Alex and Judd revisit OUT OF SIGHT - an all time Elmore Leonard classic. They dive deep into the book, discuss Stockholm Syndrome, share some of their own bad life choices, and more in the latest episode of The Elmore Leonard Podcast.

Scott Frank is one of the great screenwriters and storytellers of the modern age. Films he has written include Minority Report, Marley & Me, Logan, The Interpreter, and, of course, GET SHORTY and OUT OF SIGHT.

Scott wrote and directed The Lookout and A Walk Among the Tombstones, based on the classic Lawrence Block novel. He's also created some of the most well regarded television shows in recent years, including Godless, Queen's Gambit, Monsieur Spade and the upcoming Department Q on Netlflix.

We were thrilled to get to speak with him in this wide ranging conversation. Scott shares his experience working working with Jersey Films on Get Shorty and Out of Sight, getting advice from Elmore (some terrifying, some perhaps unintended), how writing the novel Shaker helped him as a screenwriter, and why sometimes you just need a good Wilford Brimely scene.

Revisiting what many consider to be Elmore Leonard’s most unusual novel, TOUCH is a revelatory experience for Alex and Judd. Written in 1977 but not published until almost ten years later, it stands out for so many reasons. Hear why it’s one of Judd’s favorite novels and what Alex thinks Elmore got right about the music business.
