Then Harvey Keitel arrives. With a clumsy robot.John Barry escaped from Saturn 3 just in time to work on the sequel to Star Wars, The Empire Strikes Back.

The Industry is a podcast that takes a closer look at some of the lesser known (and perhaps intentionally) forgotten stories of movie history. Insane productions, scandalous lawsuits, victories from the jaws of defeat, and the occasional crime are the order of the day in this Industry. Each story is explored with experts who know or with the people who were there. Our GDPR privacy policy was updated on August 8, 2022. Visit acast.com/privacy for more information.
