11 Things You Didn't Know About 'The Big Chill'
That cast, that music, that baby boomer anxiety. Lawrence Kasdan’s 1983 dramedy about a group of ex-hippies turned yuppie thirtysomethings who reunite for a friend’s funeral continues to resonate with anyone facing a quarter-life crisis. (Witness the current 'Big Chill'-inspired millennial comedy 'About Alex.') To commemorate the film, the Criterion Collection recently released a Blu-Ray/DVD with deleted scenes, interviews, and a 1998 documentary featuring the cast: Tom Berenger, Glenn Close, Jeff Goldblum, William Hurt, Kevin Kline, Mary Kay Place, Meg Tilly, and JoBeth Williams. Here’s a nostalgic look at 11 things you might not have known. (Gifs created by Lisa Aileen Dragani)
