Hearts in Atlantis (2001) | Forgotten Stephen King Adaptation
About this episode
The episode discusses the forgotten Stephen King adaptation 'Hearts in Atlantis' and its reception.
Episode two of our Stephen King mini-season! This is one that only the King fans remember. Hearts in Atlantis is based on a short story with another name from the beloved author. Even the star power of Anthony Hopkins and then-newcomer Anton Yelchin couldn't prevent this from box office doom. A quarter-century later it's been completely forgotten.
