Episode 45: Deathtrap (1982)
<p>If we told you ‘Deathtrap’ was the poorer cousin of ‘Sleuth’ (see Episode 13), would that be a bad thing? It would certainly be a great double bill, and the film on the docket this time is full of surprises, deception and plot twists.

Episode 44: Rocky III (1982) Part 2 of 2
<p>We round off our look at Rocky III by going through theremaining scenes of the film. Without issuing too many spoilers, Rocky comes a cropper and his life goes seriously south, motivation all but gone. However, just as Clarence the Angel came to rescue George Bailey in our very first filmreview on this show, Rocky’s old rival Apollo Creed swoops in with a two-word plan that could be said to be slightly Beatle-esque (a little something for Glass Onion fans there).</p><p> </p><p>Mr T continues to shine as the menacing Clubber Lang, but thesecond half of the film certainly belongs to the burgeoning bromance between Rocky and Apollo. Adrian also plays her part with a stirring speech on the beach, and Burt Young’s Paulie emerges as wonderful comic relief.</p><p> </p><p>Will Rocky ultimately prevail? Well, probably…</p><p> </p><p>At some point in the conversation, Antony and Scott also takea tangential look at the movies of 1982 in general. We were truly spoiled in the days when films as incredible as ‘The Thing’ and ‘Blade Runner’ could drop on the same day!</p><p> </p><p>Enjoy!</p><p> </p><p>'Film Gold' is on all the main podcast platforms.</p><p> </p><p>Feedback to contrafib2001@gmail.com</p><p> </p><p>Facebook</p><p>https://www.facebook.com/filmgoldpod</p><p> </p><p>Twitter</p><p>https://twitter.com/FilmGold75</p><p> </p><p>Antony's website (blog, music, podcasts) </p><p>https://www.antonyrotunno.com</p><p> </p><p>Antony’s John Lennon/Beatles and Psychology/Alt.

Episode 43: Rocky III (1982) Part 1 of 2
<p>Here’s part one of another swapcast with ‘The Stinking Pause’,hosted by Scott Phipps. This time round, Antony and Scott tackle the middle film of the original 5-film Rocky franchise (‘Rocky Balboa’ aka Rocky VI would eventuallyarrive after a long hiatus), a subject dear to both their hearts.</p><p><br></p><p>After the gritty 1970s fairytale that was the original film,followed by Rocky’s redemptive rematch with Apollo Creed in Rocky II, the series enters a new decade and a new era. The man gatecrashing the Rocky and Apollo party is the unforgettable Clubber Lang, played by the utterly unique Mr T in the role that would soon after land him in ‘The A-Team’ and make him a household name.</p><p><br></p><p>In this part, your humble hosts talk about their historieswith the series as a whole and discuss the other films in the franchise. They then start ploughing through Rocky III, including Rocky’s ‘friendly’ charity match with Hulk Hogan’s ‘Thunderlips’ and the lead-up to his defence of his titleagainst Clubber. Rocky Balboa is apparently now a ‘civilised’ champion.
