Episode 466: St. Elmo's Fire (1985), I Am: Celine Dion documentary review
Manage episode 425654834 series 2476228
Just a quick midweek pop-in but it's packed with drama. First, we revisit 1985's "St. Elmo's Fire," which is the ultimate Brat Pack movie. Andrew McCarthy's "Brats" documentary inspired us to see whether Joel Schumacher's film still holds up nearly 40 years later. (Spoiler alert: It doesn't.) But that John Parr theme song remains stuck in our heads. It's streaming in various places if you'd like to rewatch it, as well.
And speaking of documentaries, we review "I Am: Celine Dion," which takes an intimate look at the legendary singer as she fights a rare neurological disorder. Dion makes herself vulnerable for the camera in ways that are startling and deeply human, and even if you're not a fan of her music, you'll appreciate her openness and her drive. Streaming on Prime Video.
Check back with us Friday as we review "A Quiet Place: Day One" and "A Family Affair" on Netflix. Thanks for sharing some of your time with us this summer!
