Every now and then, the hosts of the Cinephile Hissy Fit podcast, sponsored and supported by the Ruminations Radio Network, take moments to enjoy the bodies of work from outstanding performers or filmmakers. Gilded by a strong track record of critical success all the way to the Oscar level and wealthy with dozens of commercial hits, there may not be a more universally successful director than Steven Spielberg. His cherished favorites are numerous, but even he’s got a lemon or two in his history.
For their 77th episode, our two lofty film critics, awestruck dads, and researching school teachers Will Johnson and Don Shanahan offer a new show from their “Deep Cut” series where they examine some of the lesser known and underseen movies of an actor or filmmaker’s resume. Everyone has certainly heard of Steven Spielberg, but Will and Don look past the obvious hits to present some of their favorites of his that maybe you have forgotten.
