The Bridges of Madison County (1995)
Happy Boxing Day to all the fellow Ramblers out there! In this festive tryst with an Amblin outlier, the boys head Iowa-ward with production manager extraordinaire and host of CineMortuary podcast Rob Yeomans (@dancinghenry) to document the storied BRIDGES OF MADISON COUNTY. En route they talk about the historical perception of Clint Eastwood, swoon over his gorgeous central romance with Meryl Streep and get stuck into the heady themes of desire, duty and dashed dreams. Grab yourself a leftover sandwich, pour some Bucks Fizz and buckle in for a voyage of emotional discovery!
