Welcome to America's least necessary film criticism podcast. Each week, a guest will join hosts Noah Frank and Will Vitka to discuss a film that is at least 10 years old, that at least one of us hasn't seen in that period of time, and that, hopefully, at least one of us hasn't seen at all. No classics, no bombs. This is about revisiting regular movies that we think we liked when we first saw them, to see how both we and the culture around the film have changed in the intervening years. In contrast to the constant, life-or-death anxiety of the last few years, to the unyielding firehose of news, this podcast aims only to answer a single question with the lowest stakes imaginable: Do you still like this movie?

Ep. 6: Hanks for the Good Time — “Big” (1988)

Will dives into his childhood treasure trove and digs out the 1988 fantasy comedy "Big" starring Tom Hanks, but almost starring an insane number of other leading men, all of which we get into in the pod.
There's one major plot issue with this one, and a couple of surprises along the way, given its PG rating, but it's a generally harmless tour of an extremely locked-in-1988 time capsule. And, crucially, it's (spoiler alert) actually fairly enjoyable.
