Easy Does It The 1982 Oscars
Easy Riders Raging Podcast
This week Kieran and I returned to the 'Easy Does It' format, this time with me picking who I would have had as the winners of the 1982 Oscars.
info_outlineIn this episode- recorded back in the midst of the pandemic- Kieran and I discussed Robert Zemeckis' debut feature film, 'I Wanna Hold Your Hand'. This was a film we both enjoyed but certainly had issues with. So you can expect us to talk about the pros and cons of this film about a bunch of teens in 1964 going to New York to try and see The Beatles perform on The Ed Sullivan Show. We also compare this to other films Zemeckis worked on from 1941 to the Back to the Future trilogy to Forest Gump and beyond!
