80s Movies: A Guide to What's Wrong with Your Parents - A podcast by 80s Movie Guide

Back to the Future (1985) is the ultimate '80s movie: so '80s, so timeless, so universally beloved. It's also so '80s in its reckless treatment of women, mainly how men feel that Lorraine's (Lea Thompson) sexuality is theirs for the taking -- that includes her future husband, the local bully, and even her son. Tara McNamara, Gen X, and Riley Roberts, Gen Z, look back with a modern lens at one of their favorite movies and help you remember what you never realized about this Robert Zemeckis-Steven Spielberg comedy classic.
