Paper Moon (Dadvice Part 3)

from We Love the Love Hosted by We Love the Love

Will's search for parenting advice takes us back to the NewHollywood of the 1970s as we investigate Peter Bogdanovich's 1973 film Paper Moon! Join in as we discuss cinematic scams, the debut (and Oscar-winning performance) of Tatum O'Neal, Madeline Kahn's performance as Trixie Delight, and the current state of Nick Vallelonga's potentially forthcoming That's Amore. Plus: What role did production designer Polly Platt play in shaping the movie? What exactly is Trixie's act? Does Moses (Ryan O'Neal) have any ultimate goals? And, most importantly, is this charming comedy actually a huge bummer? Make sure to rate, review, and subscribe!
