S14: Episode 4: Petals on the Wind

Author: Pick Six Movies January 8, 2021 Duration: 1:55:00
Petals on the Wind picks up where Flowers in the Attic left off in the second film in the V.C. Andrews-penned continuing incestuous adventures of the Dollanganger gang. All your favorites are back, including big sis Cathy, her boyfriend-brother Chris, their not-dead-yet little sister Carrie, and the corpse of their dead little brother Cory. Crazy mom and crazy grandma are back to scream and be insane, too! It’s wackier and weirder than the first time around in this classic Lifetime Movie that one of us loves and the other was intensely creeped out by…

Ever find yourself falling down a rabbit hole after watching a film, wanting to know not just if it was good, but the whole story behind it? That’s the territory explored in Pick Six Movies. Hosts Bo Ransdell and Chad Cooper, friends who’ve spent a lifetime dissecting pop culture, structure their conversations around a simple but compelling premise: each season, they choose six films connected by a specific theme. The real joy, however, lies in the deep dive that follows. They peel back the layers on each selection, looking at the lives and careers of the people both in front of and behind the camera, piecing together the often messy and fascinating journey of how each movie came to exist. This isn’t just a quick thumbs-up or thumbs-down review. Instead, you’ll hear them get into the weeds, analyzing scenes, decisions, and impacts with the kind of detailed, sometimes rambling, passion that only comes from genuine curiosity. It’s that blend of historical context, production insight, and two friends debating whether something actually works that gives this podcast its character. You’re essentially listening in on a great, extended conversation that’s as much about the love of the discussion itself as it is about the final verdict on the films.
