“Homer and Eddie” (1989)
from Portland at the Movies · host Portland at the Movies
In 1989, a movie so so abysmal was made in Oregon that writer and film critic David Walked dubbed it "The Curse of 'Homer and Eddie.'" Essentially he said that "Homer and Eddie" was the point where Portland cinema went from 80's independent cool to Hollywood tax shelter garbage. So does it deserve that criticism? Join us as we finally sit down to experience this pile of cinematic nonsense, starring Jim (oops...I mean "James") Belushi as a mentally enfeebled man and Whoopi Goldberg as a mentally ill woman (?) on a cross-country trip to our very own Oregon City. "A chore to watch!" - some Amazon reviewer The post “Homer and Eddie” (1989) appeared first on Portland at the Movies.
