Today, The Kicking the Seat Podcast and Mike Crowley of You'll Probably Agree embrace the softer side of David Lynch with a look at The Elephant Man! The creator of Twin Peaks and Eraserhead has dabbled infrequently in linear storytelling, and this 19th Century semi-biopic of deformed freak performer John Merrick (John Hurt) is as uplifting as it is heartbreaking and weird.The guys talk about how this film fits into the greater Lynch filmography; look into the lessons that could come in very handy today; and geek out about the makeup and production design wizardry of Lynch’s ultra-talented team.Also, Ian recommends Criterion’s fantastic new Elephant Man Blu-ray; Cole Rush’s written review of Robert Bloch’s Psycho; and his latest appearance on Mike’s You’ll Probably Agree podcast, where the guys talk about movies that never got made! Episode 593 is a traveling freak show of a different kind!Show Guide:Intro Music: 0:00 - 0:14Intro: 0:14 - 5:08The Elephant Man Trailer: 5:08 - 7:30The Elephant Man Discussion: 7:30 - 1:01:08Outro Music: 1:01:08 - 1:01:24Keep up with the latest seat-kicking goodness by following, liking, rating, and subscribing to us on Twitter, Facebook, YouTube, Instagram, iTunes, Stitcher!
