Episode 81: The Adventures of Robin Hood

ABOUT THE EPISODE:

Errol Flynn and Olivia Havilland return to the podcast in the ur-Robin Hood movie from 1938. The second Oscar nominated movie fully in Technicolor, it’s David’s grandfather’s favorite movie ever. Suzan, however, makes a case for the Disney animated version and, yes, even the much maligned Kevin Costner adaptation as improvements over the classic. Still, it’s a fun romp through Sherwood Forest, chocked full of fantastic action scenes, with Claude Rains and Basil Rathbone rounding out a great cast.
