GGACP celebrates the 40th Anniversary of the acclaimed comedy “Local Hero” (released February 17, 1983) by revisiting this 2018 interview with one of Gilbert and Frank’s favorite actors, Peter Riegert. In this episode, Peter discusses the fleeting nature of fame, the contrivances of romantic comedies, the randomness of on-screen chemistry and the profound influence of Charlie Chaplin, Buster Keaton and the Marx Brothers. Also, James Garner lays down the law, Burt Lancaster marches on Washington, Maurice Micklewhite becomes Michael Caine and Peter remembers the late, great James Gandolfini. PLUS: The Firesign Theater! “The Million Dollar Movie”! “When You Wish Upon a Weinstein”! Gilbert bonds with Chico’s daughter! And Peter “kisses” Humphrey Bogart and Jimmy Stewart!
