Episode 111: Mrs. Doubtfire

Episode 111 of The HD Movie Podcast is here! Hayley Alice Roberts and Darren Gaskell take another look into the world of movies and those movies can be of any year, any genre and any quality.

After last episode's plunge into Bad Timing's frightening view of obsessive love, we take a look at obsessive love of a different kind in 1993's MRS. DOUBTFIRE, directed by Chris Columbus and starring the one, the only Robin Williams.

Your hosts talk about revisiting the movie over the years, discussing some of the more problematic aspects of the film in addition to Mr. Williams' typically improv-laden performance. There's also a spin through the rather convoluted certification history of the film in the UK, as the classification board and local councils went back and forth over whether or not the film was suitable for kids. Speaking of film classification, how does this film link with a Video Nasty?

There's also talk of the soundtrack, the spin-off musical and the planned sequel, which spent a long time in that area of the movie industry called Development Hell. And if all of that wasn't enough, Hayley and Darren chat about deleted scenes, those 90s tropes that are bound to give modern audience an opportunity to cringe and there's even a chance to revisit that infamous "movie" Shazam with a new Mandela effect!
