For Your ReConsideration: Babe (1995)

Baa Ram Ewe! Baa Ram Ewe! Baa Ram Ewe...really should listen to our hosts discuss the magical and adorable Best Picture nominee, 1995's Babe. The second half of our George Miller double feature explores the writer/director's central theme of flying your own flag, whether that's dancing, not being sexual chattel or wanting to be a sheep-pig. Steve gets misty eyed thinking of this film; and Amy gets to experience it for the first time. Yes, we love the animals (especially Ferdinand the Duck) but we adore James Cromwell in this, his only ever nominated role. We can all agree that Christmas is indeed (emotional) carnage. All this and more, this week on the podcast. Write us in your Listener Requests and tell us why your recommendation is good (or bad!) at [email protected]; we'll be talking about what you want to listen to all December long. Next week, a month-ish of the best horror films that never were nominated begins. Won't you come and play with us forever, and ever, and ever...?
