Episode 3: Planet of the Apes (1968)

I talk with Dwight Hurst about the 1968 sci-fi adventure Planet of the Apes in honor of TCM's recent nationwide screening of the film. 

Dwight and I talk world-building, the film's racial implications, and why on Earth Charlton Heston has to be naked. I also read my first listener email.

 

NEXT TIME: I'll be honoring TCM's Summer Under the Stars
