212 - 1941

On this episode of The Video Archives Podcast, Quentin Tarantino and Roger Avary join the colorful eclectic cast of Steven Spielberg's 1941.  In the days after the attack on Pearl Harbor, panic grips California as they believe that Japanese officers are everywhere.  Turns out, they are!  A wayward Japanese military submarine tries to make its way to Hollywood, and as it does, we get to see the stories of manic panic of the day.  Join the guys as they discuss Spielberg as a director and his relationship with the ever-erect John Milius, how opinions of the production influenced critiques on the film, and the very important novelization of the movie.
