Shownotes
Get yer spinach ready, for what metinks is a great discussion.
An adaptation of a comic strip that was overbudget and fueled by cocaine. This musical comedy by the legendary Robert Altman was derided for being dull and bizarre. However, the film has it's shooters including me, the late Roger Ebert, and my special guest Kevin Tuck who appreciate the earnestness and impressive production design. There is no other movie like Popeye.
