A BIGGER BOAT: DO NOT TRUST YOUR AUDIENCE

For this week's episode we talk to film expert, screenwriter and 80s connoisseur Erik Van Der Wolf about Spielberg's growing cultural impact as the predominant name director on the planet. We talk his filmography from 1981's Raiders  to 1989's Always along with his extensive executive producing and imprimatur-bestowing to a variety of projects and directors.  His creative journey from a guy wanting to make people happy with savant-level skill at staging and craft to a guy in desperate need for artistic validation takes root in this decade.

Two things you can expect from studio film-making in the 1980's (besides cocaine): Spielberg and bad hair.
