Episode 84: Ridley Scott Watch Series #4: LEGEND (1985)

"You think you have won! What is light without dark? What are you without me? I am a part of you all. You can never defeat me. We are brothers eternal!" This week on on the podcast we return to the Ridley Scott Watch Series to discuss the 1985 fantasy film LEGEND! The gang is also joined by recurring guests Simon and Katie. We discuss the film, spending a lot of time reviewing the differences between the domestic, international, and directors cuts. Did you know the different cuts feature two completely different scores: one by Tangerine Dream, the other by Jerry Goldsmith? Before talking about the film, we discuss what we watched this week as well as our latest additions to our watchlists.
