Description

From the deranged mind of David Lynch, comes 1999's... sweetest movie? Based on a true story of an -- is this right? -- elderly man who rides a tractor to visit his dying brother... what? This dude did Blue Velvet!  Wait. What is this? This movie got a damn G rating? And was produced by Disney? Is this a joke?  We could have gotten Eraserhead! Wild at Heart! Even Dune would have been fun! But 1999's David Freakin Lynch movie is The Straight Story... And, oh yeah, it's actually great! Join Phil, Kenny and special guest Simon Ennis as they discuss the film Lynch has called his "most experimental," as well as the entire oeuvre of one of America's finest, and wildest, filmmakers.  See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.

In a lot of ways 1999 was the year that changed movies. From “The Matrix” and “The Blair Witch Project” to “American Beauty” and “The Sixth Sense”, the last year of the millennium was transformative for Hollywood. Through "Podcast Like It's 1999" writers Phillip Iscove (co-creator of FOX's Sleepy Hollow) and Kenny Neibart (Entourage, Hindsight) examine this apex of Cinema, before television took over, before Reality TV, before TMZ and Twitter but also after the internet, after Clinton, after OJ, after Howard Stern and Jerry Springer. This podcast will cover the over 250 exciting, funny and influential movies produced that year. Get excited to do a deep dive into all things 1999.
