Ep. 367: Robin Hood: Prince of Thieves (1991)

Grab your bow and grab your quiver! This week, we're traveling back to 1991 to look at one of the second biggest movie of the year, Robin Hood: Prince of Thieves. While Arnie and the T-800 owned the year, Kevin Costner was hot on his heels as the titular Robin Hood. This age old story receives the blockbuster treatment from Kevin Reynolds as Robin seeks to steal from the rich and give to the poor. As we cut to its core, we take a look at the films approach to race, religion, and diversity in the early 90s, we discuss the film's approach to class, as well as the evolution of the character and how it reads today. Finally, we debate the appeal of Kevin Costner. Tune in now! And let us know your thoughts on the show, the movie, or Kevin Costner.
