Episode 166 of The HD Movie Podcast is here! Hayley Alice Roberts and Darren Gaskell take the potion marked "movies of any year, any genre and any quality".
We're taking a short break ahead of not one but two miniseries (including our Summer Of... films) but before we do, it's time to cover our first movie directed by Robert Zemeckis. Not that we have anything against him, we just haven't got around to his work until now. Back To The Future would have been a little too obvious so we decided to take a look at DEATH BECOMES HER!
Your hosts talk about the groundbreaking effects, the terrific casting, the movie's original PG rating in the UK and the satirical elements of the script, many of which are still relevant today. There's also discussion of how the movie divided the critics and, yes, the floating nuns are mentioned. To round off, Hayley and Darren unveil what the next run of episodes is going to focus on (it's something they've been looking to do since the early days of the podcast).
We think Mitch Bain's music will live forever. He is, of course, the writer and performer of the music you hear on the podcast. You can find him on Instagram if you look for "evertheoptimitch".
