HEADS UP: CONTAINS REFERENCES TO SA. THIS EPISODE ALSO CONTAINS SPOILERS.
On this week's episode of Idle Film Club, we cover the 70s smash hit Saturday Night Fever by John Badham. We discuss the best selling soundtrack, the contentous political climate and dancing.
The film was a big talking point for the BBFC and sparked a lot of controversy at the time, which we delve into and debate whether or not it was warranted.
We also test Geo's very limited knowledge of famous film soundtracks.
