She's Having a Baby | S2E26

from Retromade

Today we’re heading back to 1988 to revisit She's Having a Baby, a more personal entry from John Hughes, where he steps in as both writer and director. It’s a look at marriage, expectations, and growing up…with a little bit of that Hughes humor and anxiety mixed in. And as always, we’ll check in on what else was happening in ’88 with a quick time capsule. I’m happy to be joined by returning guest, Scott Murphy of Bloody Sam: A Peckinpah Fan Podcast (also on The Director's Chair Network), All ‘90s Action, All The Time! & New Horror Express podcasts. Scott is a film podcaster, music reviewer and all round horror/action/metal/comedy/wrestling nerd. You can find him & his work here: Bloody Sam: A Peckinpah Fan Podcast All 90s All the Time!
