1989 Heathers with Lo Kelly
•
On this episode of Podcast Like It’s 1989, Actor Lo Kelly joins us to talk about bullies, outsiders, and 80s cheese with Michael Lehmann's directorial debut HEATHERS.
What better way to talk about the state of teen romance films in the late 80s, than with a tongue-in-cheek black comedy that riffs on the very best of them? We discuss the influence this movie had on the wrong types of people, and how that parallels the future release of 1999's Fight Club. We also dive into our favorite bits of comedy, the lead performances from Winona Ryder and Christian Slater, and debate the pros and cons of the planned alternate ending.

02:21:18David 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!66: Ladybugs with LaToya Ferguson
