Show Notes
"Scene Weekly" - This week, Jonathan and Stephen dive into the quirky, contrasting corners of 1985 sci-fi cinema. On one side, we have the zany, high-tech college comedy Real Genius, where lasers and popcorn collide in a tale of genius kids outsmarting the system. On the other, Terry Gilliam’s dystopian masterpiece Brazil takes us into a nightmarish bureaucracy filled with dreamers, rebels, and hauntingly absurd visuals.
