#084: (Pt. 1) Okja / Babe (1995)
from The Next Picture Show · host Filmspotting
Inspired by Bong Joon-ho’s new OKJA, we look back at another whimsical fantasy film about a super-pig and its human, albeit one of a decidedly different breed: BABE, Christopher Noonan’s 1995 family hit about a taciturn farmer and his innocent sheep-pig. In this half of the discussion, we consider the film’s well-honed storybook sensibility, the endurance of its then-cutting-edge special effects, and the note-perfect perfect performance at its center. Plus, some of the excellent feedback we received on our recent episodes on THE THING and IT COMES AT NIGHT.Please share your comments, thoughts, and questions about BABE, OKJA, or both by sending an email to [email protected], or leaving a short voicemail at (773) 234-9730.
