The Movies That Made Us — Episode Guide
Season 1
- E1: Dirty Dancing (2019-11-29) — Stepping on toes and tangling with rejection, the women behind this "girl's movie" touched millions despite co-star tension and a meager budget.
- E2: Home Alone (2019-11-29) — Mix a "comedy machine" with a novice director. Add a shutdown threat, rotating robbers and terrifying stunts to home in on a ho-ho-ho holiday megahit.
- E3: Ghostbusters (2019-11-29) — A rickety script, tight timeline and effects issues almost busted this comedy. But thanks to Dan Aykroyd and company, the slimy shenanigans took off.
- E4: Die Hard (2019-11-29) — This box office titan took action movies to the next level, decked out with a relatable hero, a humorous rewrite and a well-played “yippee-ki-yay.”
Season 2
- E1: Back to the Future (2021-07-23) — Vroom or bust: It took a sweet ride and a rising star — or two — to build a blockbuster from a half-baked idea and the ashes of multiple flops.
- E2: Pretty Woman (2021-07-23) — Turning an unknown into a superstar and revamping the rom-com rules amid many rewrites, this megahit's success still leaves insiders pretty shocked.
- E3: Jurassic Park (2021-07-23) — Crunch the numbers, then make way for a chubby T. rex and visual effects bad boys. This box office heavyweight disrupted the way movies are made.
- E4: Forrest Gump (2021-07-23) — Life is like a box of chocolates — or a charming script unearthed by chance. Despite casting and budget woes, this humble tale became a '90s classic.
Season 3
- E1: Halloween (2021-10-12) — It took a young team's blood, sweat and tears — and a triple-threat visionary — to make this bloodless yet scarily influential horror masterpiece.
- E2: Friday the 13th (2021-10-12) — What began as a bald rip-off made a bloody splash as a splatter classic. Now the unlikely crew spills its guts about the highs, lows and gory effects.
- E3: Nightmare on Elm Street (2021-10-12) — With a studio on the line, an imaginative director in the pocket and an actorly demon in tow, this supernatural slasher hit raked in a surreal profit.
- E4: Robocop (2021-10-12) — A painfully tight suit and budget, a passionate European auteur and on-set tensions fueled this blockbuster takedown of cutthroat corporate America.
- E5: Aliens (2021-10-12) — A hard-driving director, stressed crew, great expectations — and a tiny budget — made for a difficult birth in the case of this mother of all sequels.
- E6: Coming to America (2021-10-12) — The happily ever after? It's on screen. Behind the scenes, this litigious, loveless foray involved fisticuffs, Nostradamus — and iconic Black talent.
