In this Adapt or Perish Mini, we’re looking at the subject of a grand Thanksgiving tradition, Arlo Guthrie’s folk epic Alice’s Restaurant!

In this episode, we discuss:

• Arlo Guthrie’s original 1967 song
• The 1969 film adaptation, directed by Arthur Penn, written by Penn and Venable Herndon, and starring Guthrie, Pat Quinn, James Broderick, Pete Seeger, and William Obanhein

Footnotes:

• “The real Alice of Arlo Guthrie’s 'Alice’s Restaurant' dies at 83”
