Kanines! Riddle me this: what do an opera house in the middle of the Amazon and West Edmonton Mall have in common? Spoiler alert: LOTS. In this episode we watch Werner Herzog's boat-centric adventure film Fitzcarraldo, and compare it to the semi-obscure, semi-straight-to-video holiday stinker Christmas in Wonderland - a movie interesting only because it was filmed right here in our home city of Edmonton, Alberta, Canada. In fact, Mike worked on the movie, as a production assistant, and regales Bob with a bevy of stories from the set of this bargain bin Home Alone set in what is no longer the world's biggest mall. It's a wild episode!
