Peggy Sue Got Married

The Mikes are having a medical episode and traveling back to high school in the 1960's to watch Peggy Sue unsuccessfully try to break up with Nicolas Cage on this week's episode of Forgotten Cinema.

That's right, Mike Field and Mike Butler are discussing the 1986 Francis Ford Coppola film, "Peggy Sue Got Married". Listen in as they talk about just how fantastic the dialogue is in this film, the powerful themes in the film, Kathleen Turner's performance...as well as Cage's. The film isn't perfect though and the Mikes talk about the plots left on the cutting room floor.

So, grab your popcorn and soda, please notice the exits to the left and right of you and settle down for Forgotten Cinema.

About the Podcast

Forgotten Cinema
A podcast about forgotten films that deserve a second chance
Welcome to Forgotten Cinema! Each episode, Mike Field and Mike Butler highlight a film that for a variety of reasons was forgotten by audiences. Whether it be because a more popular movie was released at the same time or the movie simply didn’t catch on with an audience in the its initial run. We’ll discuss what we love about the movie or perhaps don’t love about it and decide whether the movie is worth a revisit.
