EPISODE 11: THE GOONIES

from Crouch Cinema Corner · host Peter and Tim Crouch

Adventure! Booby traps! Truffle shuffles! This week, your hosts Peter and Tim go full ‘80s as we dig into the childhood treasure map that is The Goonies. It's the first official viewing for both of us, and we dive headfirst into what makes this film a beloved classic, and why it still speaks to kids (and nostalgic adults) today.We talk Spielberg, Donner, and Columbus: the creative power trio behind this chaotic adventure, plus a cast of kids that include a breakout Chunk (who may just be the best actor in the film). From pirate lore and teen banter to pop culture references we finally understand, we explore the magic, mayhem, and questionable parenting that define this cult favourite.Whether you grew up yelling “Hey you guys!” or you're just discovering The Goonies for the first time, this episode is a fun, heartfelt ride through nostalgia, with plenty of laughs and a few barking cameos from our furry sidekicks (Peter's dogs).
