Cinema To The Letter: Starman (1984) (A for Atypical Hard Sci-Fi)

What's that waiting in the sky? It's a new episode of Cinema To The Letter! To wrap up their Hard Sci-Fi season, Thomas & Bryan are discussing a very A for Atypical film for hard sci-fi, director John Carpenter and Academy Award-nominated performances: Starman! Together, our duo answers the important questions. Why does Bryan prefer this to most fish-out-of-water stories? Do any of John Carpenter's scores have a love theme? How is one Starman cast member directly responsible for one of the greatest moments in cinematic history? Well, grab yourself a slice of Dutch apple pie and listen in to find out!
