In Hindsight

Before we start season 2, we had to come on and talk about Bruno and the rest of the Family Madrigal! That’s right, we’re discussing Encanto. This film was written and directed by Charise Castro Smith, Jared Bush, and Byron Howard and stars Stephanie Beatriz, María Cecilia Botero, and John Leguizamo. Join us as we sing and discuss relatable family dynamics, magical realism, trauma, displacement, the true “villain”, and more of the amazing (and heavy) details in this film!

(*Extra note: We realized afterwards that Coco has a multigenerational family as well - whoops! We were so excited that we forgot to mention that one!)
