Show notes

In 1982, two Mississippi boys recreated a $22m film, shot-for-shot, on their pocket money.Chris Strompolos and Eric Zala were aged 10 and 11. Their mission would take them seven years to complete, and it would push their friendship to the edge. There’d be amateur stunts, fires, visits to the emergency ward, production shut down by angry parents and many fallouts. It would swallow them whole.But decades later a lost tape would be unearthed, bringing Eric and Chris back together for their final scene and face-to-face with one of their heroes.Presenter: India Rakusen Producer: Edgar Maddicott Editor: Munazza Khan
