“We don’t get a lot of things to care about.”
One thing we don’t care much about this year is the Oscars, especially given the lack of love for one of the best films of last year: Pig (2021).
We got a lot of things to care about from Pig, and we’re excited to come back from our hiatus to share them with you all!
The film follows an Oregonian truffle hunter (Nicolas Cage) on a search to find his stolen, beloved foraging pig—a mission that transforms into a journey for him and his companions to confront long-held grief and loss.
We discuss the outstanding performances in this movie, the film’s poignant meditations on pain and isolation, and our appreciation for short movies.

Episode 3—Come and See: Subjectivity, Surrealism, and Storks
Come and See (1985), a harrowing story of one boy’s journey in Nazi-occupied Belarus in 1943, was the best movie Frankee saw last year. This week our resident expert in Modern Eastern European history talks with her sisters about the concept of an “anti-war” movie, film’s ability to bear witness, and the mythology of storks.
Warning: This episode involves discussion of murder, genocide, suicide, sexual violence, and animal death.
