Betamax Video Club - A podcast by Rich Nelson

Categories:

Another podcast, another film I'd never seen before. I imagine this one is more fondly remembered than The Garbage Pail Kids Movie... I was joined by James King, film critic and author, to discuss a film that didn't just do well, it potentially launched MTV and ushered film soundtracks into a new era after Saturday Night Fever. We talk about James's book throughout, it's called Fast Times And Excellent Adventures and is available in all the usual places - here are the links on Amazon and Little Brown. Some of you may have noticed that the sound from my end was a little off. Believe me, the first listen sounded like a ransom phonecall.
