Show Notes
For the 200th episode of Film Stories, a 1989 modern classic that still feels incredible it got through the Hollywood system.
That film is Field Of Dreams, and for this special episode, we're delighted to welcome the film's writer/director Phil Alden Robinson. He doesn't give many interviews, and he tells - candidly - the story of the film coming together, and the challenges they faced.
Plus, he talks about the legacy of the film, and the recent celebration of it, and the announced TV spin-off.
Please note this episode contains big spoilers for the film.
