Description

Sophia and Nick travel back to the ‘80s for the 60th Academy Awards! First, they discuss how ‘‘The Last Emperor’ swept The Oscars with nine wins, including Best Picture (2:11). Then, they dive into one of Sophia’s favorites, James L. Brooks’ classic portrait of the media, ‘Broadcast News’ (10:34). Before discussing the other Best Picture nominees, they take a quick break to dive into the telecast, other nominees, snubs, and their first-time watches from the year (30:41). Next up, they talk about Glenn Close’s striking, memorable performance in Adrian Lyne’s erotic thriller, “Fatal Attraction” (40:52). Have you heard of “Hope and Glory”? Don’t worry, they hadn’t either. They talk about why it was a hit with critics and nominated for Best Picture (48:50). Finally, they highlight Cher’s Best Actress win and celebrate the hilarious and heartwarming gem, “Moonstruck” (53:42). Did The Academy make the right choice? Listen to find out how they rank these Best Picture nominees (1:07:19). Follow us on Twitter and Instagram!Music by Benjamin Alexander
