Summary
What’s most appealing about this podcast is that it isn’t necessarily a documentary: it’s the audio equivalent of a film biopic (which Schrader calls a “biopod”), playing out a story that’s been exhaustively researched with voice actors. “It’s because they relied on each other and they had this mutual respect and support for each another in this pivotal time in the 1970s.” While the series is framed as the story behind the rise of the blockbuster film through Jaws and Star Wars, it’s also an appreciation for another common link between them: Williams’ music.
