Book Vs. Movie: Hit Man
The 2001 Texas Monthly Article Vs. The 2024 Richard Linklater Film
"Hit Man" is a 2024 romantic action comedy directed by Richard Linklater and co-written by Glen Powell, who also stars in the film. The story is loosely based on a true-life article by Skip Hollandsworth. The film follows Gary Johnson, a philosophy professor in New Orleans who moonlights as a police contractor, posing as a hitman to catch people looking to hire killers. You can read the Texas Magazine article (originally published in October 2001) at this link! Which did we (the Margos) prefer? Have a listen to find out. In this ep, the Margos discuss:

The background of the story
The publishing history of Texas Monthly and the enormous crimes covered in it.
The differences between the real-life story and the film. (Link to Harper’s Bazaar article)
The 2024 film's cast includes Glen Powell (Gary Johnson,) Adria Arjona (Madison,) Austin Amello (Jasper,) Retta (Claudette,) Sanjay Rao (Phil,) Molly Bernard (Alicia,) and Evan Holtzman as Ray.
