1 rich Libsyn https://www.libsyn.com 90 600 This time round we present our second Steven Spielberg filmand one that was very much a forerunner to (and inspiration for) the more famous ‘Jaws’, as an ordinary man is forced to find inner resources and transcend his limitations in order to defeat a seemingly unstoppable force that can’t be reasoned with. &amp;nbsp; By kind permission of Julian Charles of The Mind Renewed,the recording used here is from TMR’s 20th movie roundtable, featuring Antony as a guest alongside Julian, Frank Johnson and Mark Campbell. Dennis Weaver stars as David (every)Mann, a salesman driving his beloved red Plymouth Valiant through the California desert on his way to an important work appointment, when a predatory monster of a smoke-spewing truck inexplicably picks him as its unsuspecting prey. &amp;nbsp; (from TMR shownotes) ‘Join us as we examine the tension, explore the film'sminimalist brilliance, and ask what &quot;takeaways&quot; might be gleaned from Spielberg's early TV/cinematic masterpiece’.&amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; 'Film Gold' is on all the main podcast platforms. &amp;nbsp; Feedback to contrafib2001@gmail.com &amp;nbsp; Facebook⁠⁠ https://www.facebook.com/filmgoldpod ⁠⁠&amp;nbsp; Twitter ⁠⁠https://twitter.com/FilmGold75⁠ &amp;nbsp; Antony's website (blog, music, podcasts) ⁠⁠ https://www.antonyrotunno.com &amp;nbsp; Antony’s John Lennon/Beatles and Psychology/Alt.
