This week, ATNW covers the 1972 Swedish-language historical epic The Emigrants. And, assuming that most people have not seen this one, we walk you through the plot pretty thoroughly. How did this film make it to the big dance, and why is it relatively forgotten? Plus: Jenny's 90's YA Corner, the dark side of Carnival Cruises, and after the closing theme, CATS madness strikes!
