Altman’s Alt Boy: Brewster McCloud (1970)
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
For his follow up to MASH, Robert Altman decided to bring us all… this! The wonderfully bizarre Brewster McCloud of course stars the late great Bud Cort in the title role, but that’s hardly the only thing the movie has to recommend it. It bursts at the seams so full of ideas it will make even the most tuned in acid head do a double take. We hope you enjoy our discussion on this one of a kind cinematic experience. Topics include: Where’s Waldo, the history of the Houston Astrodome, and Michael Murphy’s singular brand of onscreen blandness.
