EP05 - Back To The Future
from The Super 70 Podcast Hosted by Dylan Davis
This month we look at the eternal cross-genre classic Back to the Future. Seemingly about a time-traveling teenager, this blockbuster from 1985 showcased Robert Zemeckis as a Hollywood directing powerhouse capable of complex cinematographic techniques to critique life in the 1980s by looking at the 1950s. But perhaps there is more to look at than Zemeckis planned. We’ll go scene by scene through Michael J. Fox’s breakout movie to explore politics, race, and rape.
