Dolly Back learns to live with Godzilla, as they take on Hideaki Anno's striking SHIN GODZILLA, equal parts brilliant political drama and show-stopping kaiju film! An excellent case study in where American and Japanese filmmakers and audiences diverge in their evaluation of a global icon, this outing boasts perhaps the most existentially terrifying creature design of the decade, and some of the most biting commentary of the Shinzo Abe administration amidst national tumult. Join your hosts as they dive into the storied history of Godzilla, Anno's utilitarian approach of digital tools, and quietly muse on the transcendence of mankind. Standard stakes for this phenomenal genre!
