THIS SEASON’S THEME: FEEL GOOD

Welcome to episode 015 of Choose Film: A Reel Retrospective podcast. Just in time for Cobra Kai Season 3, Ashley and Gary are joined by Podcaster Jason Cabassi (The Walking Dead ‘Cast) to discuss one of the most memorable films of the 80s: The Best, The Original, The Karate Kid.

SYNOPSIS
Daniel (Ralph Macchio) moves to Southern California with his mother, Lucille (Randee Heller), but quickly finds himself the target of a group of bullies who study karate at the Cobra Kai dojo. Fortunately, Daniel befriends Mr. Miyagi (Noriyuki "Pat" Morita), an unassuming repairman who just happens to be a martial arts master himself. Miyagi takes Daniel under his wing, training him in a more compassionate form of karate and preparing him to compete against the brutal Cobra Kai.
