Good Times Great Movies

A good podcast about (perhaps) not so good movies from the 80s.

Author: Douglas McCambridge & Jamie Lorello

Every other Friday, Doug McCambridge and Jamie Lorello discuss a film from the 1980s. Some are films we haven't seen since we were kids and offer a fresh perspective. Others are films we've never seen before but probably should have. Do they hold up? Are they classics? Or would these films just be better off having been lost to time?

Be suspicious of cat-sized rats, take a moment to thank a pigeon for the Statue of Liberty, and join us as we celebrate Jamie's birthday by over-analyzing a childhood favorite in An American Tail!An American Tail is a 1986 film directed by Don Bluth and featuring voice performances by Dom DeLuise, Christopher Plummer, Erica Yohn, Nehemiah Persoff, Amy Green, Phillip Glasser, John Finnegan, Neil Ross and Madeline Kahn.Visit our YouTube ChannelMerch on TeePublic Follow us on TwitterFollow on InstagramFind us on FacebookDoug's Schitt's Creek podcast, Schitt's & Giggles can be found here: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/schitts-and-giggles-a-schitts-creek-podcast/id1490637008
