Episode 235: Gas Food Lodging

Released 14 December 2022

For this episode, we watched 1991 American indie Gas Food Lodging, written and directed by Allison Anders (based on the book by Richard Peck). She assembled an amazing cast, led by Brooke Adams, Ione Skye, Fairuza Balk and James Brolin. Despite only costing just over $1 million to make, it struggled to make its money back. It has a Rotten Tomatoes score of 81%.
