In 1977 James Bridges cashed in his “Paper Chase” cred to make this deeply personal film about the effect of James Dean’s death on a group of young Arkansans played by a supremely talented gang of newcomers to the screen. Alex Simon of The Hollywood Interview is our guest co-host for this episode Written and Directed by James Bridges. Cinematographer Gordon Willis. Starring Richard Thomas, Susan Tyrrell, Lisa Blount, Thomas Hulce, Dennis Quaid, Dennis Christopher How is the world wrong about this movie? From Andras: Released with little fanfare the same year as “Star Wars” toward the end of the wave of cinematic nostalgia for the 50’s that was kicked off with “American Graffiti” you could say this film is both a beneficiary and the victim of George Lucas’s success.Produced by Andras JonesHosted by Andras Jones & Bryan ConnollyExecutive Producer: Erica RusselFind all of our episodes at www.theworldiswrongpodcast.comFollow us on Instagram @theworldiswrongpodcast Follow us on Twitter @worldiswrongpodFollow us on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCKE5tmbr-I_hLe_W9pUqXagThe World Is Wrong theme written, produced and performed by Andras JonesCheck out: The Director's Wall with Bryan Connolly & AJ Gonzalez&The Radio8Ball Show hosted by Andras JonesSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
