Book Vs. Movie is the podcast that ponders the question: "Which was better...the book or the movie?" We spoil away the details, uncover the plot points, discuss casting choices and shower with praise (or pummel with snark) as we see fit. Hosts are Margo P. (She's Nacho Mama's Blog) and Margo D. (Creator of Brooklyn Fit Chick.com) and we are not afraid to tell it like it is!

Saturday Night Fever (A Complete History): John Travolta, Nik Cohn, John Badham, & Robert Stigwood
Book Vs. Movie: “Saturday Night Fever”
Margo D’s Book About the Classic Film!

This episode is special because we're releasing it on the same day Margo P is having her birthday and Margo D is celebrating the upcoming release of Fever: The Complete History of Saturday Night Fever!  The book is a celebration of the movie that made the world want to dance and turned a TV “Sweathog” into a movie star. 

In this episode, the Margos discuss:

  • New York magazine writer Nik Cohn and how he and Robert Stigwood helped create a classic
  • The rocky road to movie making for director John Badham 
  • Choreographer Lester Wilson and why he never got the credit he deserved for his work on the film
  • Behind-the-scenes gossip by the cast & crew (many who are telling their story for the first time!)
  • Paramount Pictures’s lack of faith in the movie and their surprise at its success. 
  • The disco boom & bust of the late 1970s
  • Why 'Saturday Night Fever' is considered a cinematic classic, despite its dark subject matter.
Clips Featured:
  • “He hits my hair!”
  • Saturday Night Fever (1977 trailer) 
  • You Should be Dancing 
  • Denny Dillon as Doreen
  • Karen Lynn Gorney as Stephanie
  • Fran Drescher as Connie
