Episode 32: The Film Freaks Get Gritty With the ‘70s!
The Film Freaks are back! And they are here to turn you onto some of the best, underrated gritty flicks from that crazy decade…the 1970s, man! A time of social change, bell bottoms, and lava lamps! Plus, the country was dealing with the Vietnam War, Watergate, the oil crisis, and rising costs of Hamburger Helper! Six terrific movies are discussed—most of them have sort of slipped under the radar, but still pack quite a punch and definitely influenced future filmmakers. Directors, writers, and performers like Dustin Hoffman, Tuesday Weld, Nick Nolte, Don Siegel, Elmore Leonard, Charles Bronson, Teresa Russell, and Harry Dean Stanton are part of the mix. So crack open a can of Tab, grab some Pop Rocks and settle into your bean bag chair to enjoy this trip through the wild, weird 1970s and enjoy the Film Freaks discussing and diving deep into these six entertaining gems!
