Margo D’s Book About the Classic Film!
This episode is special because we're releasing it on the same day Margo P is having her birthday and Margo D is celebrating the upcoming release of Fever: The Complete History of Saturday Night Fever! The book is a celebration of the movie that made the world want to dance and turned a TV “Sweathog” into a movie star.
In this episode, the Margos discuss:
- New York magazine writer Nik Cohn and how he and Robert Stigwood helped create a classic
- The rocky road to movie making for director John Badham
- Choreographer Lester Wilson and why he never got the credit he deserved for his work on the film
- Behind-the-scenes gossip by the cast & crew (many who are telling their story for the first time!)
- Paramount Pictures’s lack of faith in the movie and their surprise at its success.
- The disco boom & bust of the late 1970s
- Why 'Saturday Night Fever' is considered a cinematic classic, despite its dark subject matter.
- “He hits my hair!”
- Saturday Night Fever (1977 trailer)
- You Should be Dancing
- Denny Dillon as Doreen
- Karen Lynn Gorney as Stephanie
