This week, Quentin Tarantino and Roger Avary discuss one film and one film alone: Bob Fosse’s Star 80. In 1980, Playboy Playmate of the Year Dorothy Stratten was murdered by her boyfriend Paul Snider. Three years later, Star 80 was released, a sensational retelling of Stratten’s story that hit too close to home for some. Roger and Quentin have a serious, personal discussion on differentiating fact from fiction, a tour-de-force performance from Eric Roberts, and how Dorothy Stratten touched the hearts of many through the silver screen. <a href="https://www.patreon.com/videoarchives" target="_blank" rel="noopener">PATREON</a> <a href="https://www.videoarchivesmerch.com">MERCH</a> <a href="https://x.com/VideoArchives">TWITTER</a> <a href= "https://www.instagram.com/videoarchivespod/">INSTAGRAM</a> You can also write us a question by sending a letter to The Video Archives Podcast, 1014 South Westlake Boulevard, Suite #14-1328, Westlake Village, CA 91361.
