Podcast Like It's ...

David Iserson joins us to talk about the second big miss of Steven Spielberg's career, the critically panned romantic drama Always.Get ready for two hours of Richard Dreyfuss dunking, as we try to figure out what went so wrong in the creation of this tepid remake. Would Always have been a classic with a more charming actor in the lead role? We talk about what this movie could have been if Spielberg were able to cast his first choices, what we think works about the concept and script, and where we think it went so, horrifically wrong (Hint, it's mostly Dreyfuss).Stay until the end to hear our Spielberg top tens!

Screenwriter Chuck Hayward (WandaVision/Dear White People) takes us on a trip to New Jersey in the 80s to discuss the dramatization of principal Joe Clark's life, LEAN ON ME.Lead by a showstopping performance from Morgan Freeman, and directed by the legendary John G. Avildsen, Lean on Me tackles the complicated real life story of a principal, with many flaws of his own, taking on an issue passed down to him from years of systemic injustice for inner city children. We discuss the lukewarm reception this film met at its premiere, and its journey to becoming an American classic, and a television staple. We also take a deep dive into Freeman's career, ranking our favorite performances of his, and trying to figure out what the heck happened at the Academy Awards that year. Tack on a beautiful rendition of the Eastside High Alma Mater from Kenny and Chuck, and some WandaVision reception talk (How could we not?), and you have an episode for the ages.Find Chuck Hayward at: twitter.com/chuckoffPodcast Like It's 1999: podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/podcast-like-its-1999/id1316214754Twitter: twitter.com/podcastlikeitsInstagram: instagram.com/podcastlikeitsReddit: reddit.com/r/podcastlikeits Hosted on Acast.

Writer Toby Herman is on the show this week to talk about the greatest (or worst, it's all a matter of perspective!) crime fighting duo of 1989, Turner & Hooch.In the current pop culture age of tongue-in-cheek throwbacks, it's hard to not get swept up in the 80's cheese that is hard boiled into the core of this deranged buddy cop comedy. Are we looking back with rose tinted glasses, or is this movie an underrated diamond in the RUFF? Toby has some thoughts on the matter. We take a deep dive behind the scenes to talk about the on-set rivalries, inexplicably long "screenplay by" credits, and the bizarre, contradictory choices made, that bring up a lot of questions about the intended audience age.Find Toby at: twitter.com/tobyherman27Podcast Like It's 1999: podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/podcast-like-its-1999/id1316214754Twitter: twitter.com/podcastlike1999Instagram: instagram.com/podcastlike1999Reddit: reddit.com/r/podcastlikeits Hosted on Acast.
