Description

It took until the 74th Next 100 Project podcast for us to get to this movie? Inconceivable! We end the summer covering a one-of-a-kind ’80s classic from Reiner & Goldman. The screenplay is wonderful, so is the cast (“mostly”) and it’s all just a big ol’ hilarious charm-fest. Enough gushing…listen! Sparkplug Coffee needs and deserves your patronage too, so please oblige!

Titles in the series (100)

Ryan and Bev Ellis are partners in film nerdery who share their often humorous musings on the AFI's 1998 & 2007 lists of the greatest 100 American films ever made. But we finished with that in December 2015, so now we just review anything we feel like!
