Episode 316 – The Making of “And God Spoke” (1993)
Manage episode 453207836 series 2403133
All good things must come to an end . . . and on an unrelated note, so must our series “Ready When You Are, C.B.,” movies about making movies. We’re closing out with a somewhat less-than-well-known mocumentary about a fictional film team attempting to make a movie covering the entire Bible. As you might guess, things do not go well. I don’t want to give too much away, but their obvious mistake was not making the whole thing a musical! Come on, what could lend itself more to light-hearted music and dance than the Bible? Enjoy the haunting Adam-and-Eve duet “This Apple Tastes Like Crapple,” or a clever patter song for Moses: “Countin’ Down Ten Commandments.” It writes itself, doesn’t it? How about a catchy number for Job: “What A Day I’m Having” or a tender ballad “Don’t Go Throwing Stones at Hookers.” And you could wrap it all up with a huge, psychedelic song-and-dance number for Revelations: “Don’t Go Breaking That Seal.” I’m telling you, this is a golden calf mine, and as soon as I can get the funding together . . . well, give a listen and here the rest of my plan [spoiler: there is no rest of my plan].
Poll question: whose opinion most affects your choice of movie viewing? Your friends or professional movie critics?
