Forrest Gump (1994) with Gary Sweeney

12 Sep 2022

Description

Get ready to throw away those rose-colored glasses as we look at this gluttonous "apolitical" film Forrest Gump with artist Gary Sweeney, our guest artist who is known for his re-examination of the past with a sharply pointed feather that will tickle your funny bone. Erin and Heyd get critical with this Academy award-winning film that did not age well, knowing full well that their observation might suffer the same fate in the future. Cuddle up as we embrace this cloyingly sweet film that melts like cotton candy with an artist who will have you wondering who the movie is actually for.  Tangents: deep fakes, public art committees, Texas textbooks, blindcasting, rap music, Woodstock '99, Gary's grandmother, patriotism  For more information about Gary's studio practice, check out follow his Instagram @garysweeneyart.  Follow us on Instagram @artists.talk.movies Help support the podcast by purchasing t-shirts, totes, mugs, hats, etc!!!!
