With David Lynch December in the rearview mirror, we kick off 2020 with a look at a director who hasn't gotten much attention on the Kulturecast, Steven Spielberg, and his b-sides. We begin our look at Spielberg's b-sides with his first film, Duel. Dennis Weaver plays David Mann, an everyman who makes the mistake of passing a tanker truck on a desolate California highway only to be tracked and harassed by the angry trucker. Unfortunately, it doesn't remotely live up to the expectations of a Spielberg film but sets the stage for movies to come. The One Season Show's Jess Byard joins Chris to talk about the film, how it would affect Spielberg's later career, and where it ranks in killer car movies.
