Let the Movie Speak!
"Invasion of the Body Snatchers" (1956)
Season 5, Episode 9
After discussing their week of watching, including The Sixth Sense (1999), The Adventures of Tintin (2011), the pals journey into the eighty minute popcorn world of Invasion of the Body Snatchers (1956). While touching on some brief historical and genre-specific context, the experience of what it feels like to watch this movie is explored. Opinions are given on the lead performance by Kevin McCarthy, the somewhat limited role dispensed to his love interest played by Dana Wynter, as well as how cool those pods really are. Comparisons are made between the original and the 1978 version, including the stark contrast in the endings. All of it culminates in an answer to their favorite question: "Is It Worth Your Time?"
