An 80s Movies Review Podcast

Silver Screen Sisters

Arts EN ↓ 56 episodes

Once upon a time, Sophie asked Billie, “Wanna start a podcast about 80s movies?” Billie said, “Uh, no. I hate 80s movies.” And the Silver Screen Sisters Podcast was born. In truth, we just needed an education, as neither of us had watched many 80s movies. Who’s John Hughes? What are The Outsiders? These are questions we ask. Because we have no clue. And don’t even begin to ask us how to pronounce names. We invite you to join us as we discover what makes the 80s such an iconic time for cinema and why people come back to them again and again.

An 80s Movies Review Podcast

Episodes

Episode 6 - Sophie's first time watching *batteries not included 01.02.2022 49:55

This classic from 1987 is not one we grew up with, and Billie has only seen it once herself. But with names like Steven Spielberg, Matthew Robbins, Brad Bird, James Horner, Hume Cronyn, and Jessica Tandy tied to the project, we knew we were in for a treat. Listen in as we react to the story and discuss what makes this movie worth watching! www.silverscreensisters.com Or find us everywhere here: ht...

Episode 5 - Billie's first time watching The NeverEnding Story 24.01.2022 56:57

Or if Billie did, she doesn’t remember one second of it. Sophie remembers it quite well for reasons those of you that have seen it will understand. Our reactions to such a classic movie may be controversial, but we always did say we were clueless. www.silverscreensisters.com Or find us everywhere here: https://linktr.ee/silverscreensisters

Episode 4 - Our first time watching Beat Street 17.01.2022 1:03:41

It’s a travesty that we’ve never seen this one. Music, dancing, art. This sadly little known movie has it, and it's incredible! Featuring many hip-hop artists from 1980s New York City, it's a movie that makes you want to get up and dance. Listen in as we share our reactions to the movie and the representation it gives to Black and Puerto Rican communities of 1980s the Bronx. www.silversc...

Episode 3 - Our first time watching Pee-wee's Big Adventure 10.01.2022 57:06

Not sure how both of us grew up without watching this one, but we did. But we’re glad it happened that way because watching this one for the first time as adults was a treat. One of Tim Burton’s first feature films, starring Paul Reubens and with music by Danny Elfman, this one was a much welcome surprise! www.silverscreensisters.com Or find us everywhere here: https://linktr.ee/silverscreensister...

Episode 2 - Sophie's first time watching Little Shop of Horrors 03.01.2022 41:25

In this episode, Sophie watches a plant try to eat humanity and calls it a toddler. With talent like Frank Oz, Rick Moranis, Ellen Greene, Levi Stubbs, and Steve Martin, she was in for a treat! But Billie wasn’t so easily won over the first time she watched it… Listen in to see what we thought! www.silverscreensisters.com Or find us everywhere here: https://linktr.ee/silverscreensisters

Episode 1 - Our first time watching 80s movies! 03.01.2022 14:28

Hello and welcome! We’re Billie and Sophie, the Silver Screen Sisters. Reality is, neither one of us have watched all that many 80s movies. We started this podcast to fix that and share our reactions. Those of you who like to listen to people's reactions, especially when someone is watching something for the first time, this show is for you. www.silverscreensisters.com Or find us everywhere h...
