They called The Bad Seed ‘deliciously terrible’ - ??!? -
Any podcast THAT wrong about a film is not worth the time.
The podcast keeps getting better. I’ve watched a few movies like They Shoot Horses, Don’t They and revisited some episodes of classic tv because of the discussion between Tony and Brad. I’d add A Place in the Sun to the list of essential Elizabeth Taylor films. Someone needs to get over the fact it was directed by George Stevens. She’s never been more luminous than in that film and the chemistry with Montgomery Clift is off the charts.
I just found out about this podcast and the episode, which I just listened to about A Star is Born was pretty great. I was very impressed that Brad and Tony both knew about the original film What Price Hollywood - can’t wait to listen for more fun episodes!
Going Hollywood is a perfect example of the best type of podcast. I always feel as though I'm eavesdropping on two friends discussing movies. The topics are fun and I consistently talk back when I passionately agree or disagree.
I discovered this podcast as a referral to “The Poseidon Adventure” episode… I was worried that the hosts, Tony and Brad, were going to tear apart and make fun of my favorite movie. Much to my surprise, they treated it with so much reverence, respect, knowledge, and fun that I couldn’t wait to listen to other episodes. I continue to be entertained and schooled on other favorite movies and classic TV shows, as well as some I’ve never seen. I enjoy Brad and Tony’s easy rapport and extensive resear... more
