A Fun Film Reflection Podcast
I really enjoyed the first episode of this podcast. Instead of ranking movies or doing a deep dive on Hollywood drama, this podcast is reflecting on one person’s most rewatched movies of the last 20 years. And the host, Jane, has watched a lot of movies. The Mary Poppins episode covers some history of the movie, Jane’s memories of watching it 14 times, and why it’s a movie that continues to resonate. I also appreciated hearing about how Jane views the Mary/Bert friendship from an aro/ace perspective.
