🎬 This Week on VHS Therapy

Mary and Teddy revisit the 1992 World War II spy romance Shining Through, starring Melanie Griffith, Michael Douglas, and Liam Neeson.

This early 90s drama follows Linda, a secretary-turned-spy who is sent behind enemy lines in Nazi Germany after falling in love with her boss — who just happens to be a spy.

The question is:
Was this sweeping wartime romance misunderstood… or was it truly a stinker?

💥 In This Episode We Discuss:

Is the spy plot even remotely plausible?
Does the movie know whether it’s a romance or a war thriller?
Melanie Griffith’s accent — bold choice or fatal flaw?
The Razzie Awards sweep (Worst Picture, Worst Actress & more)
Liam Neeson before he had “a very particular set of skills”

🎥 Next Week
We’re heading to 1999 with The Mummy — Brendan Fraser, Rachel Weisz, adventure, chemistry, and a movie we actually remember fondly.
