Considered as having one of the most iconic werewolf transformations in cinematic history, this months film rides a very delicate line between tragedy and comedy in a surprisingly very Shakespearean nature. Aside from the titular werewolf, this John Landis directed movie contains some the best practical zombie makeup and lead to the inspiration of one of the king of pop's most iconic music videos. With its average Joe main character this film is a story that comes the closest of making the audience feel that you too with just a bit of poor luck and being in the wrong town at the wrong time could become a monster.

The late 90s had it's fair share of incredible animated movies that made up this host's childhood. These included, but definitely not limited to, Hercules, The Hunchback of Notre Dome, and the previously discussed on this podcast Prince of Egypt. But this months film is one, to quote a phasing I used to say, went under the radar for me. Directed and co-written by Brad Bird, who would later go on to be an icon for Disney and Pixar, this movie tugs at the heart strings and captures the imagination to delve into very deep themes of death, grieving, and self defining against what you might have been made for. So put your Superman capes on and listen as we discuss…. The Iron Giant. Big thanks to special guest Marcel from the Reel Chums Podcast go check them out.

*Please forgive the audio. I am still out of practice when it comes to doing in person episodes. But I really do hope you barrel through the episode because I really loved connecting and talking with my sister about a movie she loves. Which is rare. If you cannot stand the audio there are more episodes with audio not as bad please give them a listen if you have not yet. Have a Happy New Year* The story of noir has become a time honored tradition in cinema known for its tales of grittiness and begrudging tough as nails male protagonists. This month's film brilliantly takes this movie motif and makes it its own by creating a very human story of injustice, still having a detective but with problems different than those in other movies of the genre, and telling a story of a more deeper love that involves a different type of femme fatal and most importantly there is jazz.
