TV & Film
The Mikes are popping their collars, moving to New York, and climbing to the top of 1987 Wall Street while taking a look at the "oh so eighties" comedy starring Michael J Fox, The Secret of My Success. Join Mike Butler and Mike Field as they discuss the eighties-ness of it all! From the style of the clothes to the style of the film itself; the use of montage and music, the ridiculousness of the situations. Also, unfortunately with the "that's so eighties" comes the not so great parts of it; the less-than okay dialogue and scenes, especially regarding the treatment of some of the women in this film. The Mikes also debate such important topics as whether or not Michael J Fox was a teenage heartthrob? Could you make this film today? Does anyone born after 1995 know what a yuppie is? And the most important question of all; how does Michael J Fox take his pants off over his shoes so fast? All these topics and more on this season 10 premiere!!! So grab your popcorn and soda, please notice the exits to the left and right of you, and settle down for https://www.forgottencinemapodcast.com/ (Forgotten Cinema).
