Close Encounters of the Third Kind & 1977 Best Picture w/ Ben Miller
Description
Writer for thefilmexperience.net and his own site icecream4freaks.com Ben Miller joins this fortnight for a wealthy and exciting chat on 1977 film. First, it's time to discuss our unexpected outlier from Best Picture and Ben's personal favourite of that year, Spielberg's Close Encounters of the Third Kind (1:39 ). We also made room for the Academy's mix of sci-fi, romcoms and melodramas, starting at the Best Picture winner Annie Hall (24:53 ) and making our way through The Goodbye Girl (32:10 ), Julia (43:30 ), Star Wars (55:31 ), and The Turning Point (1:03:01 ). Then, it's time to revise Oscar history.... (1:15:20 ).
