Elle and Zach harken back to the halcyon days of 1997, when they'd look at VHS tape covers in supermarkets for the movie they watched this week. Cats Don't Dance is a 1997 animated film with a big heart, lovely animation, great music, and a seriously imperfect grasp on how to talk about disenfranchisement in Golden Age Hollywood. But hey, guess nothing was going to stop them… then. Talking Points: The movie rental section of Price Chopper Markets; horror movies; Tiny Toons and Looney Tunes; animals are a bad metaphor for racism.

Every other week, grownups Zach and Elle look back at obscure, overlooked, and forgotten kids movies. Elle probably saw them as a child; Zach probably did not. Together, they get to the heart of what makes these films worth digging up or worth shoving to the back of your VHS cabinet.
