This week on the pod Jimmy wanted to discuss some movies that got them a little bit misty eyed, so they cued up the notorious tear jerker Studio Ghibli classic The Grave of the Fireflies. They discuss the qualities of the film that make it so enjoyable despite its heavy theme and reputation for being one of the saddest movies ever. Then they move onto 2021's Pig, which is kind of like John Wick but with a truffle pig instead of a dog. Or is it? Turns out - not at all! One of the things discussed is the initial impression this movie made and how it subverts the audience's expectation in revealing itself as a story about grief and loss. It's also one of Tristan's favourite movies ever. Tear Trigger warning: the guys reference the moment in Forrest Gump where he talks to Jenny's grave. He's so smarht Jennay! :'(
