28 Weekend at Bernie's

This week we visit another one of Tony's favorites staring the divine Bette Milder and the hilarious Lily Tomlin in the 1988 comedy "Big Business"  a mix of Comedy of errors, Prince and the Pauper and The Town Mouse and The Country Mouse. What could possibly go wrong?

This Week we visit one of Tony's favorite movies. It's the 1987 romantic comedy staring Cher and the late great Olympia Dukakis, it's "Moonstruck". How can you go wrong with Cher, a love triangle, wooden hand and a makeover!

This week we introduce Lena to a classic. It's the 1983 coming of age film directed by Francis Ford Coppola "The Outsider" This is one Lena has been wanting to watch for a long time.  Brynne and Tony are nostalgic about this film. Does it still hold up after all these years?  Is there under tones of gay love?  We got lots of opinions about this one!

It's just Brynne and Tony this week, and for this episode we're doing things a little differently. Where are they now? We see what some stars from the movies we reviewed are up to now. We also talk about some upcoming films that we are excited about

The Week we are in the 90's with this cruel coming of age story. It's the 1995 dark comedy, "Welcome to the Dollhouse." This is one of Tony's favorite movies. It shows how mean kids can be. Another film about bad parents WTF?

The Week we visit one of Brynne's favorite movies. It's the 1989 dark comedy "Weekend at Bernie's". Does this film still hold up all these years later? Or is this film dead in the water now?  Will Lena like this one? Tony has strong thoughts on this film

This week the tables are turned when we watch one of Lena's films that she grew up on. it's the 1982 "Shelley Devall's Faerie Tale Theater: The Tale Of The Frog Prince" Tony and Brynne have never seen this and by the looks of it its a bit disturbing? Robin Williams as the frog prince and Teri Garr as the bratty  Princess.

This week we go Sci-Fi with one of the best! its the 1979 film that started huge franchise "Alien". This is one Lena has always wanted to watch but never got to, till now.

This week we revisit a classic from the 90's with this coming of age comedy "Don't Tell Mom the Babysitter's Dead" Is this just movie about bad parenting? Does anyone remember being a latchkey kid? But I'm right on top of that Rose.  Lena gets to see a movie she has heard a lot about and has never seen this week. Does it hold up?

This week we venture in to the animi world. With one of the best films in this genre.  It is the 2001 Japanese animated fantasy film written and directed by Hayao Miyazaki, animated by Studio Ghibli "Spirited Away".
