In the new episode of Film Stories with Simon Brew, a pair of films executive produced by Steven Spielberg - albeit one a lot better than the other!

Back To The Future Part II was up against big challenges, high expectations, an actor in dispute, a director editing it while making the next movie, and a whole lot more.

With The Flintstones, hopes were high at Universal for another Jurassic Park-style hit. But over 30 writers couldn't nail the script...

Stories of both are told in this episode.
