The Ice Storm (1997) Family Drama and Suburbia in 1970s America

"You develop a sense when you get older, if things are going to work out or if they won't, and sometimes it's not worth the mess." 

October is in the books for 2024 as we are moving into our Thanksgiving Film line up this month and we are kicking it off with a truly underrated drama waiting to be rediscovered. This week we are joining Henrique and David in New Cannan, CT, for a slice of late 90s coming of age cinema. During Thanksgiving weekend in 1973, two Suburban families find their lives go into chaos when their actions all culminate with consequences following an intense ice storm one night in 1997s "The Ice Storm" !

Directed by Ang Lee and starring Kevin Kline, Joan Allen, and Sigourney Weaver. Hear your hosts discuss how they stumbled upon the film together back in 2020, why the cinematographer is absolute legend with his resume, how the film touches on adolescence and irresponsibility for both kids and adults, plus Henrique shares stories of shoplifters from his days working in the mall, and did David get the meat sweats after eating many slices of Ham and chasing it with Whiskey? Bundle up and watch your step as this is another episode you don't wanna miss!
