À propos de cet audio
In typical VHS Glow fashion, the four hosts discuss their nostalgia-relationship to The Princess Bride, including first viewing context, family & school screenings, & what their younger selves felt about the movie.
Joe gives a queer interpretation but then veers left and talks about Chernobyl.
Further topics include:
- GenX vs millennials
- the definition of "feel good" movies & why the Simmons family disprefers them
- Blue Velvet (1986) hermeneutics, or what's inside the lawn of S. Morgenstern's seemingly picture-perfect narrative
- the life sucks yet true love prevails narrative
- Chernobyl & 80s catastrophes
- comedy and Americanization
- Chernobyl & Cheetos (specifically, fluorescent cheese dust coating as boron & sand mixture dumped on reactor 4)
- Chernobyl & Cheez Whiz
- film culture & the desire to return to simple/idyllic narratives during (& after) times of existential crisis
- the first sensational national headline story each host remembers
- wtf is up with that grandfather/grandson dynamic?
- a discursive shift in 1990s best picture academy award winners
- & much more!
