Ep. 33: The Bridges of Madison County (1995)

Who better to talk about Clint Eastwood's 1995 study of brief passion than two guys who have been best friends for over a decade and still don't make a lot of eye contact? Nobody, that's who! Today we're exploring THE BRIDGES OF MADISON COUNTY, talking the beginning of Clint's bestseller-adaptation run, Meryl Streep, war brides, and why the movie is in part a rebuke of FORREST GUMP. Good ep, check it out! Topics include: our Iowa experiences, THE LAST VOYAGE OF THE DEMETER, Clint's relationship with Dina Ruiz, the film's changes from the source material, more Spielberg talk, Taking A Gander, David Ayer's FURY (obviously), whether British people are European, and more! https://www.podcastyforme.com/ https://www.shootingyourselfinthehead.com/ Follow Pod Casty For Me: https://twitter.com/podcastyforme https://www.instagram.com/podcastyforme/ https://www.youtube.com/@podcastyforme Artwork by Jeremy Allison: https://www.instagram.com/jeremyallisonart
