Ep 218: Tommy Boy

Tommy Boy quite simply is one of the iconic comedies of a generation, and a staple of a tragically short, but powerful career in Chris Farley. He and Spade together are like chocolate and peanut butter. But beyond the slapstick, physical humor of Farley, there is some really terrific writing in here, and Farley himself even delivers a dramatic and nuanced performance when it's called for. You won't watch Tommy Boy the same way again once you hear our break down. We also give our top 5 Chris Farley moments of all time. So don't let in the moths, watch your hair piece, and celebrate that D+... it's time for Tommy Boy on The Movie Defenders podcast!
