Show Notes
After the success of his "Stand By Me" adaptation, director Rob Reiner returns to Stephen King's work for the film that won Kathy Bates an Academy Award for Best Actress for her captivating performance as psychotic superfan Annie Wilkes. In episode 298, Luke Elliott & James Bailey explore the sledgehammer scene, James Caan's impressive physicality, a more pitiable version of Annie Wilkes, and what some key changes to the plot change about the themes of the story. The finish by casting their vote on which was better: the book or the movie?
