Episode 83: CRUISING (1980)


Listen Later

(NOTE: Unlike most episodes of the show, this one is NSFW [not safe for work], as the subject matter required a more frank conversation than normal. Nothing gratuitous, but please keep in mind).

Andrew and Dave return in this episode of Films(trips) to take a look at what might just be the most controversial film the pair have tackled yet! Yes, that's right: the duo are taking a look at the 1980 mystery-thriller CRUISING, starring Al Pachino!

However, Andrew and Dave know what they don't know, and enlist the help of Dr. Brandon Arroyo to help contextualize CRUISING's place in queer cinema! What do the trio make of the William Freidkin film? Tune in and find out!

Next Episode: I can only interpret the absence of The Honeydippers' cover of the song from the soundtrack as a snub.

All music by Andrew Kannegeisser. Audio wrangling and technology fighting by Dave Babbitt
