THIS IS SPINAL TAP (Rerelease) - The Season of Rob Reiner

On this special rereleased episode of The Cine-Files, Steve Morris and John Rocha continue The Season of Rob Reiner with their discussion and breakdown of THIS IS SPINAL TAP with special guest Producer and Executive Michael Ross. To say that Rob Reiner's 1982 mockumentary invented its own genre is an incredible understatement. From improv projects like Waiting for Guffman and Curb your Enthusiasm to comedies using the documentary form like The Office and Parks and Recreation, This is Spinal Tap is one of the most influential films of all time and John, Steve and Mike have an amazing (and hilarious) time discussing it.
