On the first episode of our film-by-film rundown of Danny Peary’s beloved 1986 movie guide, we are joined by Vulture TV critic and longtime friend Roxana Hadadi, who explains her personal, familial connection to Francis Ford Coppola’s 1974 Oscar-winner, and joins in a spirited discussion of the picture’s virtues, flaws, and reputation.

Hello cult leaders and self-loathing playwrights and all the ships at sea and welcome to A Very Good Year. As you probably know by now we are retiring this show and coming back in 2025 with a whole new show, Guide for the Film Fanatic, this Sunday! The show is based on a film-by-film run through of Danny Peary's seminal 1986 book of the same name, where one of our fabulous guests picks a film and we dive in.

In the meantime we're revisiting some of our favorite guests and favorite movies by decade. This week we're looking back at the 1990s, objectively a great decade for movies and a very formative one for many of our guests (and hosts).

In this episode we've got Mac Welch, David Simms, Keith Phipps, John Early, Karen Han, Hunter Harris, Alissa Wilkinson, Roxana Hadadi, Daniel Waters, Kristen Meinzer, Siddhant Adlakha, Allison Herman, Abby Olcese, Noel Murray, and Emily St. James.

Enjoy!
