Speed Racer

Our formative movie May ends with SPEED RACER, the Wachowskis' then-panned, now cult classic of color and sound and explosion and anti-corporatism. It's Kev's pick for a movie that made them love movies, and they're joined by fellow superfan Grace Robertson, Carli, and Rowan watching it for the very first time, to talk about why it's stuck around, why it came out at exactly the wrong time, how the Wachowskis' Gen X libertarianism may undercut some of its themes, Christina Ricci with grease on her face, and cars going boom.
