In this bonus tie-in show we are augmenting our June trip through John Landis comedies of the 80s with a conversation about his biggest hit of the decade, the Eddie Murphy-starring Coming to America. Over the course of our chat you will hear us talk about Eddie Murphy's brightly shining star and what this movie meant for his career and how it was a lifeline thrown to Landis who had just emerged from years of court battles. We talk about Murphy playing a non-comedic lead while also saturating the film with cameo performances rooted in out-and-out comedy, the film functioning like a classic screwball, the many Zamunda antics and how Arsenio Hall rounded out the cast too.
