Welcome back to the movie closet. In this series, we review a movie one of the co-hosts has not seen. Then, we dissect the film for its underlying theme and talk about it. This week we are reviewing the classic film Cherry 2000 from the year 1987. The underlying theme is unexpected love.
Cherry 2000 Synopsis:
- Need a bounty hunter? She's your man! In the future, a man travels to the ends of the earth to find the perfect woman. In this fun, futuristic sci-fi adventure, Melanie Griffith (Something Wild) is delightful and unflappable as a futuristic bounty hunter on a mission to find a robot replicant of a rich man's short-circuited wife. When successful businessman Sam Treadwell (David Andrews, Fight Club) finds that his android wife, Cherry model 2000 (Pamela Gidley, The Blue Iguana), has blown a fuse, he hires sexy renegade tracker E. Johnson (Griffith) to find her exact duplicate. But as their journey to replace his perfect mate leads them into the treacherous and lawless region of The Zone.
Join Shawn and Leah as they discuss unexpected love. From depictions of love and romance in Cherry 2000, to Get Over It, and Spike Jonze's Her, the hosts tackle many aspects of surprise love. You will enjoy their personal story, as well as some of their memories from previous relationships. Get ready for robot sex, trackers, and an adventure through a futuristic wasteland.
