See Hear Podcast Episode 18 - The Apple
Hey Hey Hey….See Hear’s on it’s way!!!!
Wendi, Tim, Sticky and Maurice have gathered together for
episode 18 of See Hear to chat about the 1980 film from Menachem Golan, The
Apple. The film is both reviled and adored. Everyone agrees it ain’t Citizen
Kane. Two naïve singers from Moosejaw, Canada are tempted into a recording
contract with the mightiest music company in the world BIM…..which aims to rule
the world!!!!!
The team discusses the script, the plot developments, the
songs, the dancing, the costumes…..how did they cope with all that “talent”?
The film incorporates Biblical themes, George Orwell, Time Bandits, Phantom of
the Paradise, Rocky Horror, Hair, Jodorowsky, and Fellini (yes, you read those
last two words right!!!!) This film even has possibly the most gratuitous
groping in the history of cinema. You have been warned!!! One thing we all agreed on was that discussing this film was a lot of fun....we hope you enjoy listening to it.
But wait……there’s more!!! Justin Oberholtzer (aka The
Cinemasoschist) sent us in a recording of HIS thoughts on the film, so you’ll
get his perspective as well. Welcome back to podcasting, Justin.
