This week, we strip all types of privacy to discuss human connection with the eerie and Black Mirror-like The Circle. As part of our continuing animation marathon, we also discuss the cinematic chops of the art-imitating-life film Perfect Blue. Last but not least, we delve into the world’s biggest animated feature from Japan, Your Name. This teen, body-swapping romance may turn out to be more interesting than its concept.
Next Time: Spirited Away, Nausicaa of the Valley of the Wind, Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2
