このコンテンツについて

In typical VHS Glow fashion, the four hosts discuss their nostalgia-relationship to The Princess Bride, including first viewing context, family & school screenings, & what their younger selves felt about the movie. 

Joe gives a queer interpretation but then veers left and talks about Chernobyl. 

Further topics include:

  • GenX vs millennials
  • the definition of "feel good" movies & why the Simmons family disprefers them
  • Blue Velvet (1986) hermeneutics, or what's inside the lawn of S. Morgenstern's seemingly picture-perfect narrative
  • the life sucks yet true love prevails narrative
  • Chernobyl & 80s catastrophes
  • comedy and Americanization
  • Chernobyl & Cheetos (specifically, fluorescent cheese dust coating as boron & sand mixture dumped on reactor 4)
  • Chernobyl & Cheez Whiz
  • film culture & the desire to return to simple/idyllic narratives during (& after) times of existential crisis
  • the first sensational national headline story each host remembers
  • wtf is up with that grandfather/grandson dynamic?
  • a discursive shift in 1990s best picture academy award winners
  • & much more!
