Get your surf boards out folks cause we are Escaping L.A.!! If you have never seen the movie or the original Escape From New York, just imagine if Han Solo had to keep doing little side jobs for the emperor to get out of trouble before he met Luke. John Carpenter's Escape From L.A., 1996. Directed by John Carpenter. Written by John Carpenter, Debra Hill and Kurt Russell. Produced by Debra Hill and Kurt Russell. Starring: Kurt Russell, Stacy Keach, Steve Buscemi, Peter Fonda, Georges Corraface and Cliff Robertson.

It's been too long but here is my new episode. It started with the second-to-last scene in an 'Outer Limits' episode from 1963 entitled "The Human Factor". Brought yours truly straight to tears. Then we hurtled through time to 1996, to Cliff Robertson's touching redemption at the end of another 'Outer Limits' episode, entitled "Joyride". The combination of these two genius moments equipped PZ to talk about... yes... Anglicanism... and yes... the Episcopal Church... and yes... contemporary parish ministry. But I couldn't go there until my heart was ready. And that work was achieved by Sally Kellerman and Gary Merrill in 1963. Incidentally, I recommend you begin your sermon preparation -- maybe any public preparation -- by getting in touch with your heart. (People aren't really that interested in your mind.) Get in touch with your heart and you might actually convince somebody. Oh, and by the way, I'm an Episcopal minister and still glad to be one. (And we go to a great church.) LUV U.

Tread Perilously's Movies On TV month continues with an episode of Gidget called "Gidget's Foreign Policy." When Gidget's father allows an associate's daughter to spend the week before classes begin at UCLA at their home, Gidget comes face-to-face with a more rigid way of life: the Swedish way! But her attempts to get the timid Inge to loosen up work too well and, soon, the exchange student is chasing the boys Gidget usually keeps on a leash. Will her boyfriend choose Inge over her? And what will happen when Inge's fiance returns from San Francisco to discover what's become of his intended? Erik and Justin immediately seize on the weirdness of Sweden as a truly foreign country. Erik accidentally stumbles on a possible Opus Dei conspiracy. Star Sally Field is discussed for her obvious presence, but lack of chops as Gidget. The character's name is also discussed. Justin tries to figure out the premise and its connection to the film. The innocence of the series throws the pair for a loop. Special guest star Walter Koenig and a member of the film's cast leads down a very specific alley. The importance of a good burger bun is emphasized. Gerd Shockley makes an unexpected appearance and Cliff Robertson is celebrated.

Wild Hearts Can't Be Broken directed by Steve Miner, and starring Gabrielle Anwar, Michael Schoeffling and Cliff Robertson. Episode Roundup: The Cowpunchers discuss a very odd, dare I say, confusing, scene of horse touching. Detective Amy begins to suspect Mel of having once been a horse girl. Mel has some quibbles with some of the horse husbandry in this film!

“You're in acting class and you're studying Chekov or ‘Waiting for Godot' -- and then you end up doing 80s tits-and-a**… You caught on pretty quick what it was about and where the power lay.” -- Actress Heather ThomasWhat was it like to be an 80s poster icon and sex symbol? Susan and Sharon welcome The Fall Guy star and “80s Poster Lady” Heather Thomas. She's an actor, writer and activist -- but may be best known for her “Pink Bikini” poster, one of the best-selling pin-up posters of all time. Heather Thomas had leading roles in television shows like BJ and the Bear, The Love Boat and TJ Hooker -- as well as the movie Zapped! with Scott Baio, Willie Aames and Felice Schachter. But her most famous role was playing stuntwoman Jody Banks on the hit 80s television series The Fall Guy. Running for five seasons on ABC, The Fall Guy spawned board games, posters, a video game -- and just last year, a major feature film starring Ryan Gosling and Emily Blunt -- and Heather Thomas! Since her days as a TV star and pin-up queen, Heather Thomas has gone on to an extraordinary career as a novelist, political activist, organizer and fund-raiser.  NOTE: This episode was recorded Dec. 2024, before the LA Fires. Our thoughts are with Heather and her family, and all those impacted by the fires. Stay safe. Be well. THE CONVERSATIONWORKING WITH MONKEYS: Clyde, the orangutan from Every Which Way But Loose, was her co-star once: “He thought it was funny to keep grabbing my boob. I thought he was gonna rip it off!” And a stint on BJ and the Bear led to producer Glen Larsen tapping her for the co-starring role in The Fall Guy. WORKING WITH TV PRODUCERS: “All of them are crazy. You're not gonna find any normal ones, not in those days. Everyone was nuts. And they still are.”"Smile more": Early on, the ABC network executives were afraid that Heather Thomas wasn't likable. So they put her in a bikini. “I guess that made up for me not smiling enough.” STUNT WORK: “Lee Majors almost broke my nose once.” "I was good on rollerskates!"In preparation for a Fall Guy episode, Heather trained with the Los Angeles Thunderbirds roller-derby team: “They showed me how to ‘break my back' on the rail -- it was really fun!”Ted Lange -- Isaac, the bartender on The Love Boat -- was one of Heather's favorite directors on the Fall Guy.A GOOD DIRECTOR: For Heather, it was someone who brought her into the filmmaking process. For Lee Majors -- it was anyone who got him home by 5:00pm! THE POSTER: Once the show was a hit, a poster was the next big step: “It outsold Farrah Fawcett. I bought a house. I was thrilled.”DIS-LIKENESS: Heather's image has been hi-jacked and used for everything from lighters, to puzzles, to notebook covers -- to a pillow!ON HAVING A FAMOUS BODY: “My body was my living. That's how I saw it.  So I had to feed it, exercise it -- I couldn't have an ounce of cellulite. It was part of the gig. But I didn't care, I was grateful. I was making more money than I ever had in my life. I was a kid.”ZAPPED! -- Teen sex comedy -- or sexual harassment?  “They tried to get me topless, but my contract said uh-uh!  So, they used a body double. There's a big disclaimer at the end of the movie saying that it's not my tits.”Activism: “Ever since they said, ‘You can't climb the tree, the boys can' -- I was a feminist.”So join Susan and Sharon -- and Heather -- as they talk fly-fishing, Star Wars, David Letterman,Teen Beat, Shaun Cassidy & Parker Stevenson, “Gabor-lore”, Cliff Robertson's toupeé, organizing your phone by decade, not complying in advance -- and canoeing with Henry Winkler!AUDIO-OGRAPHYFind Heather Thomas on Twitter at Twitter.com/HeatherThomasAF And find Heather Thomas on BlueSky at HeatherThomasAF.bsky.social Watch Heather Thomas in The Fall Guy on Peacock, Amazon Prime or Flixfling!Check DontGetPurged.org to make sure your name has not been purged from voter rolls!Find out more about CREW at CitizensForEthics.orgVITAL READINGGet Handbook for A Post-Roe America by Robin Marty at Bookshop.org.Check out Men In Dark Times by Hannah Ahrendt at Bookshop.org.Read Democracy Awakening by Heather Cox Richardson at Bookshop.org.You can also follow Richardson's substack.SUPPORT FOR THE LA FIRESOnline at DisasterAssistance.gov On the FEMA App for mobile devices or Call the FEMA Helpline at 1-800-621-3362Calls are accepted every day from 4 a.m. to 10 p.m. PST.More resources at Eaton Canyon Community Relief.Google List of LA County Resources. AIRBNB is offering temporary free housing for those displaced by the fires. Start here. PLACES TO VOLUNTEERGoogle Doc for Wednesday and ongoing.Volunteer with the Red Cross.TALK TO SOMEONEReach out to friends and family. Take care of yourself:Pro Bono Therapy for LA Wildfires - Google Doc. More mental health resources at LARevive.DONATINGMaster GoFundMe List for LA Fire Victims Google Doc.Displaced Black families in Altadena Google Doc. Gofundme pages for EATON CANYON COMMUNITY RELIEFCONNECTVisit 80sTVLadies.com for transcripts.Join the conversation at Facebook.com/80sTVLadies.Sign up for the 80s TV Ladies mailing list.Support us and get ad-free episodes on PATREON. In Honor of President Carter and to learn more about his presidency: Get Susan's new play about him and his Crisis of Confidence speech: Confidence (and the Speech) at Broadway Licensing.

The impact of The Dirty Dozen on the decade cannot be overstated – here was a big-budget, Hollywood star-powered blockbuster, about a popular topic, that simply didn't hold back. Toss on the fact that there was no rating system at the time, it's very likely Little Timmy didn't know what he was getting into when he decided to go see that new World War II movie. With a few well placed curse words and a few dozen dead Nazis, director Robert Aldrich ushered a whole new era of screen violence into the American consciousness. In this episode, Bart and Jenna discuss the legacy of The Dirty Dozen by going straight to the immediate rip-offs that followed in its wake. There's at least two surprisingly underseen gems in the bunch, as well as one other massive hit, all of which bring up the body count even as some question their own morality. Finally, some war movies even Bart can enjoy! The following films are discussed:• The Dirty Dozen (1967) Directed by Robert Aldrich Starring Lee Marvin, Ernest Borgnine, Charles Bronson• Dark of the Sun (1968) Directed by Jack Cardiff Starring Rod Taylor, Yvette Mimieux, Jim Brown• The Devil's Brigade (1968) Directed by Andrew V. McLaglen Starring William Holden, Cliff Robertson, Vince Edwards• Play Dirty (1969) Directed by André De Toth Starring Michael Caine, Nigel Davenport, Nigel Green• The Wild Bunch (1969) Directed by Sam Peckinpah Starring William Holden, Ernest Borgnine, Robert Ryan• Battle of the Commandos (1969) La legione dei dannati Directed by Umberto Lenzi Starring Jack Palance, Thomas Hunter, Curd Jurgens

She recently co-starred with Richard Chamberlin in the critically acclaimed independent film, THREE DAYS OF HAMLET. Her first television series, "The Girl From U.N.C.L.E.," marked a milestone in U.S. television's history as the first hour long series featuring a female in the leading role. Her television career includes over 25 mini-series, over 200 episodic guest starring appearances, 35 movies for television and two more television series, "Feather and Father" and the long running "Hart to Hart," starring opposite Robert Wagner, now celebrating its 45th anniversary. She became a member of the Screen Writers' Guild of America in the 1980s and has produced several of the screenplays she has written, one of which, "Family Secrets," was not only a stepping stone for the careers of James Spader and Gary Sinise but it garnered her a nomination for the best screenplay of the year by her peers in the Writers' Guild. Her writing has extended itself to a memoir called, One From The Hart, published by The Robson Press. Throughout her career she has never neglected her theatrical roots, appearing in productions of; How the Other Half Loves, Under the Yum Yum Tree, Sabrina Faire, A View From the Bridge, Oliver, Annie Get Your Gun, the West End debut of Matador, off-Broadway in The Vagina Monologues, back to the West End with Robert Wagner in Love Letters, which they also toured the United States with, becoming the cast most associated with the play after over 500 performances. Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/arroe-collins-unplugged-totally-uncut--994165/support.

Never trust the guy who makes the first toast at your anniversary party! Jeremy responds to Dave's inaugural choice of Hitchcock's I CONFESS with Brian De Palma's 1976 film OBSESSION, starring Cliff Robertson and Genevieve Bujold, with a treacherous frenemy turn from John Lithgow. Something is rotten in New Orleans in this genteely lurid steambath of loss and longing, as Robertson's Michael Courtland hopes to recapture the love of his life by wooing a younger woman whose uncanny resemblance to his dead wife alarms those closest to him. With Bujold playing both female roles, we're firmly in Hitchcock territory, with nods to VERTIGO piling up like stacks of cash in the ransom scheme that robbed our hero of his wife and daughter years before.  Dave unpacks the parallels between Hitchcock's masterpiece of fetishism and OBSESSION's layers of imitation, while Jeremy marvels at the artistic choices that made Roger Ebert enthusiastically describe this film as “overwrought melodrama” in which “excess is its own reward.” With Lithgow twanging his way through a series of white linen suits and languid, spiteful glances, Robertson's stoic and deeply tanned widower and his new paramour both find themselves retreading familiar ground as they approach the uncanny denouement.  Is it good-bad or bad-good? Can you blame a guy for believing the unlikeliest of coincidences? Don't you want to see what happens when he goes all in? Join us for our next episode where we uncover the image behind the image that is OBSESSION.  Music by Jeremy Donald. Find Dave here: https://linktr.ee/davedwelling

This week, we are taking a little detour into the past in our investigation with a Not Dunne Yet bonus episode from many moons ago. Dominick Dunne really did interact with so many characters in his various acts, and this week we take our man Nick connecting a whole throughline of folks you might not know were connected. From Elaine Young to Gig Young to Eugene Landy, with Brian Wilson on the side, back to Elizabeth Montgomery – and an added Cliff Robertson mention too. So many spiderwebs in this one that pull so much together.  To advertise on Done & Dunne, please reach out to info@amplitudemediapartners.com. Learn more about your ad choices.

After just doing an episode about the Oscars, the boys decided to keep things exciting and do another one immediately after. But the Oscars are half the podcast's title, so we think our hosts deserve a pass for this one. Today they take a look at some films which have recently won Best Picture at the Academy Awards or Worst Picture at the Golden Raspberry Awards, trying their best to recast the movies and flip the outcome of the awards. In other words, can Sonny and Tom take a Best Picture film and make it bad by changing the cast? And can they take a Worst Picture film and make it good the same way? The short answer is no, as the cast can only affect a film so much if you can't change everything else. So the boys quickly decide that they actually are allowed to change everything else, basically reshaping the movies entirely and rendering the episode's title inaccurate. And that should give you an idea of how much they planned for this one.Of course, Sonny and Tom begin with a round of Arnold in a Famous Role, which takes them to Cliff Robertson's 1968 win as Charly in the film "Charly," which was based on the story "Flowers For Algernon." The boys discuss if Arnold Schwarzenegger would do well in this role as an intellectually disabled person, a kind of role which pretty much died off about 20 years ago. They also take a moment to acknowledge Cliff Robertson's late-career turn as Uncle Ben in the Sam Raimi Spider-Man movies. In the process, they come to the realization that Uncle Ben only works if the character is old, as a youthful and spry Uncle Ben would detract from Peter Parker's nerdy ways.

EPISODE 28 - “Golden Era Stars in 1970s Disaster Films” - 03/25/2024 Just when many classic films stars thought they were finished in showbiz, a wonderful thing happened — 1970s disaster movies! Producers like IRWIN ALLEN and JENNINGS LANG shepherded in an exciting, over-the-top, new genre that capitalized on our fears. They also smartly cast many classic film actors in these movies, providing familiar faces who added comfort and emotional investment. These films proved not only lucrative for these golden era stars, but kept them in the public eye longer and often revived careers. Listen this week as we talk about our favorite film icons as they are shaken, flipped, torched, and dropped from the sky in the great 70s disaster films.

My guest is one of the most celebrated actors of his time. As well-known for his movies as for keeping himself away from Hollywood politics, we discuss his movie career, his desire for privacy, and much more.

After losing everything - twice, Cliff began a process of rebuilding his life through faith, resilience, and hard work - developing a masterpiece mindset. He went from the ashes of a life destroying tragedy, that was then magnified by some really bad choices, fueled by trauma, to a place of real success. He has completed multiple doctorate degrees, built churches, companies and a non-profit that seeks to end veteran homelessness through a shelter, a counseling center and a vocational training facility. It is one thing to say the words - anything is possible - It is another thing altogether to live these words. Dr Cliff, is a living testimony to the truth behind his mission. His mission - to let YOU know that ANYTHING IS POSSIBLE and you can begin where you are, whether you are in the pit of despair, flat on your back or struggling with life in ways that you feel that you can't share with anyone else and create an inspired life - full of the things that matter most to you.

Tyler talks about an often overlooked gem starring Ernest Borgnine which also got him the Oscar for Best Male Actor. Also in this episode, he reviews the Rose Tattoo, the controversial casting of Jennifer Jones in Love is a Many Splendored Thing, Mister Roberts and Picnic. 

GRAMMY®  Hall of Fame Honoree Iconic Hit Writer: "At The Hop", "Rockn Roll is Here to Stay", "You Don't Own Me" "1-2-3" & MoreJohn Madara was born & grew up in Philadelphia, PA at a time when the city was teeming with groups and artists such as The Spaniels, the Clovers, Harvey and the Moonglows, Billy Ward and the Dominos and the great Jackie Wilson. Rock and Roll was starting to take root and John Madara was destined to make rock and roll history. In 1957, John launched his solo career, with his first record, "Be My Girl," reaching the national charts. That same year, John co-wrote with Dave White a song called “Do The Bop." On the advice of Dick Clark, whose local show, American Bandstand, had just gone national, the title and lyrics were changed to “At The Hop." Danny and the Juniors, recorded it, and by Christmas of 1957, it had reached the top of the pop and R&B charts worldwide. “At The Hop” remained #1 for an astounding 7 weeks, the first record ever to reach that success, and it has remained a rock and roll classic to this day. Following “At The Hop," John produced and co-wrote with Dave such mega-hits as “The Fly” (Chubby Checker)“You Don't Own Me” (Lesley Gore) among other smash hits. He also produced for Danny and The Juniors, “Rock and Roll Is Here To Stay." He also discovered one of the most prolific duos of all time, Daryl Hall and John Oates. With them he produced two albums. John moved to L.A. in the ‘70s, where he found success writing and producing for movies and television. He produced the soundtrack for the James Caan/Marsha Mason movie, “Cinderella Liberty," and also produced the title song for the Cliff Robertson movie “Ace Eli and Roger of the Sky.” In the mid ‘70s, he was music supervisor for the hugely successful “Sid and Marty Kroft Comedy Hour." This was in conjunction with an ABC Comedy Hour and network special which launched the new ABC season Madara/White songs have reached millions of people through radio, films and television. Worldwide sales of their songs and productions have reached over 2 hundred million records. Their songs have appeared on some of the biggest grossing soundtrack albums of all time, including “American Graffiti” and “Woodstock” (At The Hop), “Grease” (Rock and Roll is Here to Stay), “Hairspray” (The Fly and You Don't Own Me), “Mr. Holland's Opus” (1-2-3), and “Dirty Dancing” and “The First Wives Club” (You Don't Own Me). It was the 1996 hit film, “The First Wives Club," that paid the contemporary power of their talent the ultimate compliment by not only featuring “You Don't Own Me” but by making it the theme of the movie. John has continued to write and produce music, working with young, up-and-coming artists. At The Hop” was voted by the Recording Industry Association of America as one of the top 100 songs of the century. The soundtrack album, “Grease," was voted one of the top albums of the century. “Rock and Roll Is Here To Stay” is featured on that album. John recently finished producing an album with Tony Danza, following a hugely successful radio hit single that he also produced, “The House I Live In.” He is also working on a feature film, “At The Hop.” In 2016, his song with the late singer ,songwriter Dave White "You Don't Own Me" was made a #1 Hit all over again  19 year old Australian singer " Grace" and features G-EAZY. It was Produced by Quincy Jones.~ thatphillysound.com© 2024 Building Abundant Success!!2024 All Rights ReservedJoin Me on ~ iHeart Media @ https://tinyurl.com/iHeartBASSpot Me on Spotify: https://tinyurl.com/yxuy23baAmazon Music ~ https://tinyurl.com/AmzBASAudacy:  https://tinyurl.com/BASAud

On the anniversary of Pearl Harbor, Dec. 7, 1941 we'll get an interesting story from a popular film star. This actor received an Oscar for his role in the film “Charly” in 1968. Cliff Robertson's career spanned six decades. One of his memorable roles was his portrayal of John F, Kennedy in “PT 109.”  He was in the Spider-Man trilogy, played astronaut Buzz Aldrin in “Return to Earth,” and was Henry Ford in “Ford, the Man and the Machine.” Cliff, an accomplished pilot, was the founding chairman of the EAA Young Eagles program in Oshkosh. It was the most successful aviation youth program in history.

Derided by both audiences and critics, we offer a defense of the film as a vital work of Carpenter's late period that manages to thrill as an action picture, while wryly thumbing its nose at the corrupt values of Hollywood and its own existence as a prototype for modern "legacy sequels".We begin by talking Carpenter in the 90s, a time when he was taking his biggest swings (while also facing some of his most frustrating conflicts with studios). Then, we take a look at the fascinating tenor of the film, and how it balances the acerbic, raw energy and wit of the original film while taking aim at societal ills of 1996 America with even more directness and urgency than its predecessor. Finally, we compare the film to other great movies (and one 2021 sequel specifically) that have followed in the spirit of 'Escape From L.A.', reckoning with legacy, while also boldly subverting audience expecations in pursuit of revealing the deeper truths and authenticity of their creators. Follow Comrade Yui on Twitter and Letterboxd.....Our theme song is "Mirror" by Chris Fish. 

Book Vs. Movie: Three Days of the CondorThe James Grady Book Vs. the Robert Redford-Starring Movie The Margos talk about the paranoia-soaked 70s with a discussion about the novel & film Three Days of the Condor starring a dreamy Robert Redford and a luminous Faye Dunaway. The story is about a man who loves to read and works for the CIA and gets sucked into a life-threatening chase between himself and outside forces of the government.Published in 1974 (the same year Richard Nixon resigned from office), author James Grady used his experience working in politics in his native Montana to weave a tale around everyman Malcolm Ronald, who reads mystery and spy novels and analyzes the plots for the U.S. government. When his entire office is killed in one fell swoop--he goes on the run with his code name, “Condor,” to find a faithful ally to spare his life. The 1975 movie directed by Sydney Pollack stars a fantastic cast and takes a few liberties with the screenplay (by Lorenzo Semple, Jr. and David Rafiel.) What are the main differences between the short story and the film? Which version did the Margos like better?

Hosts Rosalie Lewis, a writer for FThisMovie.com, and Tim Rosenberger -- a 25 Years Later film writer, a blogger, and YouTuber -- travel back to the Golden Age of Television again with four live teleplays featured in the Criterion Collection's boxset The Golden Age of Television: Bang the Drum Slowly (1956), Requiem for a Heavyweight (1956), The Comedian (1957), and Days of Wine and Roses (1958). They feature such actors as Paul Newman, Mickey Rooney, Piper Laurie, Jack Palance, and Cliff Robertson. Rod Serling also returns, writing two of the teleplays. Three of the four were later adapted into feature films.

Dean Lentini joins me in this episode to discuss the most current movie I've done on the show, Spider-Man: No Way Home. I open up the discussion by urging my listeners to go watch this movie if you haven't already because, well, spoilers are about to happen, and you don't want this movie, of all movies, spoiled. Dean is a Youtuber (TheoLive) a father, and church planter in Moose Jaw, Saskatchewan in Canada. (I found him via his video "Should Christians boycott Disney?") But for all intents and purposes for this podcast, he loves Spider-Man, and has been for as long as he can remember. I plan on learning a lot from this avid Spider-Man fan. I asked him off the bat about J.K. Simmons playing J. Jonah Jameson in Tom Holland's universe. Dean claims that the MCU has answered this question with the multiverse, with the 616 (he explains what this is). Basically, everyone exists in some way in this universe, and sometimes they happen to look like other versions. I really want to know if Peter Parker's reasoning for wanting the spell to be cast is a strong enough reason to set the plot in motion. Dean concedes that it could have been stronger, plot-wise, but we both fail to come up with an alternative on the spot, mainly because we recognize that the crux of Peter's problems need to be grounded in real-life adolescent issues that we all faced as kids - that's the heart of Spider-Man after all. I share my experience seeing Spider-Man (2002) for the first time and how I got to show it to my kids on its exact 20th anniversary earlier this year. Spider-Man 2002 is also a very special movie for Dean, so much so that he still has his ticket stub. I have him share what made the movie so special for him. There are parallels, obviously in Spider-Man: No Way Home and Spider-Man 2002, one of them being the death of Peter's father-figure (Marisa Tomei's Aunt May and Cliff Robertson's Uncle Ben). I'm curious as to which death was more impactful for Dean. He speaks highly of the performances during Uncle Ben's death, but Aunt May's death hit a very raw nerve with him. Of course, we geek out over having all three Spider-Mans together and how they brilliantly played off each other for emotional support as well as for laughs. That's easy to gab about and gush over, but we also talk about the villains. My, oh my, the improvement this movie makes on our favorite Spidey villains - especially Green Goblin. But what about that ending? I ask Dean if it's tragic enough, being unsure myself. I feel like his explanation deepens the significance of Peter's choice and breaks my heart just a little bit more, the way the movie attempted to do. But I do have one burning question that hopefully the sequel will explain, and that's this: How does Happy Hogan know Spider-Man, but not Peter Parker? Dean does his best to answer this, and I applaud him for his valiant attempt. We talk also about what Spider-Man represents - getting knocked down, but always getting back up, and how inspiring the man and the legend are to people all around the world. I end the conversation with five Spider-Man related questions and I ask Dean to list his three desert island movies. Here is where you can find Dean Lentini, I highly encourage you to check out his stuff as this guy is definitely on a role.YouTubeTwitterInstagramAnd this is the video that inspired me to reach out to Dean to be on my show, and it's called, "Should Christians Boycott Disney's Lighter?"Follow Life Through the Big Screen on these following pages:InstagramFacebookTwitterEmail: Author.andrewtoy@gmail.comThis episode was sponsored by Spur Creative

Welcome to Open Form, a new weekly film podcast hosted by award-winning writer Mychal Denzel Smith. Each week, a different author chooses a movie: a movie they love, a movie they hate, a movie they hate to love. Something nostalgic from their childhood. A brand-new obsession. Something they've been dying to talk about for ages and their friends are constantly annoyed by them bringing it up. In this episode, Mychal talks to Danya Kukafka (Notes on an Execution and Girl in Snow) about the 2002 film Spider-Man, directed by Sam Raimi and starring Tobey Maguire, Willem Dafoe, Kirsten Dunst, James Franco, Cliff Robertson, and Rosemary Harris.
