The Director's Club / Voices & Visions crossover continues once
again! Last year around this time, it was so warm outside, we
opened the windows. This time, it was cold & snowy (hence the sound
of the heater throughout). But have no fear! Your loyal
Chicago film critics are here to carry on the tradition of going
back 30 years to cover a year in film that they all grew up
with. Starting from about 1985, our hosts became film
fanatics with different tastes, but similiar memories of
videostores, working at movie theaters, and watching many R-rated
titles at a young age.
This special 2-part bonus episode will continue every February, for
every year. For 2018 of course, we travel back to 1988 and
relive the entire year. Just about every weekend of releases
are mentioned from classics like WHO FRAMED ROGER RABBIT to obscure
discoveries like BAGDAD CAFE. How much will Jim & Erik argue
the merits of certain horror movie sequels? Does either David
Byrne or Bono come up courtesy of superfan Collin?
You'll have to listen to the 4 and a half hours of conversation to
find out. The intermission begins at about the 02:15:00 mark
and the show continues for Part Two!
