Molding Pottery with Ghost

Patrick Swayze, Demi Moore, and Whoopi Goldberg teamed up to deliver THE movie of 1990. Ghost would be a record-setting movie for the year, and featured one of the most quoted moments of the decade. Nobody would forget that pottery scene.

This week, we take a look back at Ghost. We talk about its approach to subverting the male gaze. We also spend a lot of time talking about ghosts, ghost lore, and life after death. We also talk 80s yuppie culture and more as we bring this romantic classic to the analysis table.
