Popeye (1980)

<p>We welcome back star reporter and author of the bestselling biography <a href="https://us.macmillan.com/books/9781627794244/robin">Robin</a>, <a href="https://twitter.com/ditzkoff">Dave Itzkoff</a>. We tackle Robin Williams’ first attempt at movie stardom, Robert Altman’s absolutely insane, cocaine fueled movie musical, featuring songs by the legendary Harry Nilsson, and filmed exclusively in a functional village that hundreds of carpenters built from scratch over a year, that 40 years later is still a standing tourist attraction on the isle of Malta, Popeye!
