Ep. 62 - Hook (w/ Colby Ewert)

With Hook, Spielberg was beginning a new decade of filmmaking, but this adventure movie that acts as a twist on a classic tale really marks the end of a particular phase in his career. This film was a huge deal at the time, not only because of the well known names of Peter Pan and Hook attached to it, but also because of the actors in those roles: Robin Williams and Dustin Hoffman. We talk about all of this, the amazing production design, the nostalgia, and even some things that didn’t hold up on a rewatch in this episode. www.establishingshotpod.com/ Feedback: Email us at [email protected] Leave a voicemail from the button on the right side of the screen on our website www.establishingshotpod.com/ Support the Show: Join The Establishing Shot Family for early, ad-free episodes, bonus content, and access to our Discord server where we talk movies all the time: www.establishingshotpod.com/support/ Guest Info: Colby Ewert Twitter: x.com/ColbyTweetin Instagram: www.instagram.com/colbytradespins/ Letterboxd: letterboxd.com/fantasmicfeels/ Follow Eli and the Show: Eli on Twitter (X): twitter.com/theeliprice Eli on Letterboxd: letterboxd.com/eliprice Show on Twitter: twitter.com/EShotPod Show on Instagram: instagram.com/establishingshotpod Show on Threads: www.threads.net/@establishingshotpod Show on Facebook: facebook.com/establishingshotpod Show on TikTok: tiktok.com/@establishingshotpod Show on YouTube:    / @establishingshotpod   Other Links: My Letterboxd Ranking of Spielberg Films: letterboxd.com/eliprice/list/elis-ranking-of-steve… Research Resources: - Steven Spielberg All the Films: The Story Behind Every Movie, Episode, and Short by Arnaud Devillard, Olivier Bousquet, Nicolas Schaller - Steven Spielberg: A Life in Films by Molly Haskell - A Companion to Steven Spielberg by Various Authors, edited by Nigel Morris
