Huge episode this week! We're talking about Bob's 1987 (filmed in 1983) movie, OC AND STIGGS. A crazy teen-movie satire that was way ahead of its time in the stuff it was even satirizing - that's the power of BOB (get it, its like a reference to 80s movie back to the future).
Seriously though, we have to thank Hunter Stephenson very much for their article '"The Utterly Monstrous, Mind-Roasting Saga of O.C. and Stiggs"' and subsequent documentary for Radiance Films, 'The Water is Finally Blue: The Untold Story of Robert Altman's O.C. and Stiggs'. Without these two pieces, we wouldn't have nearly as much to talk about. Hunter interviewed so many key people in the making of this, and found soooo much cool info that we talk about in this episode. He's also just a very nice person, and enjoys the show! So there you go.
Join us as we discuss lobsters, 80s teen comedies, Altman going on a gambling spree, crazy partying onset. It's everything you could possibly want in the making of an Altman movie (so of course it failed very badly when released). Some people really don't like this one, but we loved it.
