"They're gonna keep calling us 'cutters.' To them, it's just a dirty word. To me, it's just something else I never got a chance to be." How has it taken this long to get to a good old-fashioned sports movie on the podcast? We watched the Peter Yates film "Breaking Away" with our good friend Joshua Clement. Dennis Christopher plays Dave Stohler, a working-class Midwest teen, passionate about Italian cycling, navigating life with his ragtag group of friends. Nominated for a handful of Oscars, including best picture, director, and a win for original screenplay, "Breaking Away" was a sleeper hit when it came out the summer of 1979. The most 70s cast of cute young men to fill a back issue of Tiger Beat Magazine. We have our lanky lead, Dennis Christopher, who's giving us 70s Timothée Chalamet, there's Dennis Quaid with his six-pack on full display, a post- "Bad News Bears" heartthrob Jackie Earle Haley, and the screen debut of Daniel Stern!
