The Natural (1984)
Manage episode 370913377 series 3457954
Biggs and Aaron travel back to the turn of the century to witness the best that ever was (if only he hadn't gotten shot by a lady and/or had learned the lessons of ancient lore) with The Natural. We talk about mythology and representation, we talk about a man in his 40's pretending he is a teenager (that's Robert Redford, not Wilford Brimley ...), and we talk about the importance of independent film companies. We cap it all off with a look at one of the more iconic finales to a sports movie ever. From iconic cinematography to the historic implications of smashing the lights out at a baseball game there is plenty to learn all the way to the end; check it out!
