About this episode

The episode discusses the film 'OVER THE TOP', focusing on its themes of family bonding and critique of film reviewers Siskel and Ebert.

This week we cover the classic arm-wrestling drama - OVER THE TOP! A tale in which a truck driver with a lucrative sideline in arm-wrestling takes his estranged 12-year-old son on the road after the boy's mother falls seriously ill. The trucker is beginning to reach out to the boy as the pair head for Vegas and the arm wrestling world championships, but the lad's wealthy, unfeeling grandfather sends his thugs to put a stop to the bonding and bring the boy back.
