I Wanna Hold Your Hand
Episode 1, Aug 06, 2020, 03:00 PM
Richard and Kyle kick off their odyssey with a look back at Zemeckis' debut feature, the wild and wonderful (and criminally underseen) look back at Beatlemania: I Wanna Hold Your Hand.
Set over the course of 48 hours or so, four teenage girls set out to catch a glimpse of the Beatles before their iconic performance on the Ed Sullivan show. Big American Graffiti vibes with Zemeckis' particular brand of humor lacing the entire film, earning it a Criterion release. Be forewarned. After watching I Wanna Hold Your Hand, you will see Zemeckis in a new light.
