Awesome Movie Year

Basic Instinct (1992 Audience Choice)


Listen Later

The finale of our season on the awesome movie year of 1992 features our audience choice pick, Paul Verhoeven’s Basic Instinct. Directed by Paul Verhoeven from a script by Joe Eszterhas and starring Michael Douglas, Sharon Stone, Jeanne Tripplehorn and George Dzundza, Basic Instinct prevailed over two other movies about femme fatales in our 1992 audience choice poll.

The contemporary reviews quoted in this episode come from Roger Ebert (https://www.rogerebert.com/reviews/basic-instinct-1992), Janet Maslin in The New York Times (https://www.nytimes.com/1992/03/20/movies/review-film-sure-she-may-be-mean-but-is-she-a-murderer.html), and Peter Travers in Rolling Stone.
