On this week's very special Reel Projections podcast, Host Joe (that's me) is joined by PoHo Wayne Garcia for a conversation about the career of director John Hughes, who died on Thursday at the age of 59. Joe and the PoHo play audio clips from Hughes most famous movies and dissect the director's influence on the 1980s specifically, and on film-making in general. And go here for video clips of Hughes' films.
