Episode 467: Livin’ Like Lovers. Rolling Like Thunder.

This week’s physical media show features Peter Sobczynski and Erik Childress talking about a seminal propaganda film from the ‘60s that inspired a ‘70s scene in Boogie Nights plus some science-fiction from the 1980s from Imprint. The ‘80s also across an all-star cast that helped launch Julia Roberts and a Nancy Savoca film from the ‘90s due for a rediscovery. They discuss the film that inspired The Untouchables, plus Paul Schrader writes a religious comedy and then gets the 4K treatment to a project he disavowed. Then his frequent partner in crime, Martin Scorsese, also gets his Oscar-winning effort upgraded. Is it now considered underrated? Come for the discussion. Stay for Peter’s tale of presenting with William Devane at an awards show. 0:00 - Intro 2:14 – Criterion (I Am Cuba) 7:02 – Imprint (Batteries Not Included, Strange Invaders) 21:30 – Sony (Steel Magnolias 4K) 25:20 – Kino (Household Saints) 30:33 – Vinegar Syndrome (Touch) 35:38 – Shout Factory (Rolling Thunder 4K) 51:06 – Arrow (The Scarface Mob) 55:32 – Warner Bros.
