About

Our attention turns to 1981's Caveman, starring Ringo Starr, Barbara Bach, Shelley Long and Dennis Quaid. We discuss where Ringo is in his life and career at this point, the shadow cast over the production and release by John Lennon's murder, and how Ringo's physical and expression-based performance measures up in a film without dialogue. Also, while it's fair to say neither of us thought it was Citizen Kane, we do disagree a bit about the merits of the film in general, so if you like a scrap you've come to the right place. (Assuming you like your scraps conducted as very mild and polite verbal disagreements.)
