ENCORE PRESENTATION!

Why are so many Christmas movies about suicide, despair, poverty and criminality? Isn't it supposed to be all about peace, love and hope? In this episode , Azed and Jay welcome filmmaker, Sean Cisterna (Kiss and Cry) to discuss their favourite Christmas movies. Sean breaks down his chosen favourite, Gremlins, to reveal the fascinating subtext woven deep in this seemingly benign monster movie. Jay unearths an obscure Ukrainian Christmas movie called Melody for a Street Organ, and Azed chooses a Jimmy Stewart Christmas classic, but not the one you're thinking about. Also, in the spirit of the holidays, we fully analyze the alternative version of 'Jingle Bells' and attempt to comprehend what it is that is causing Batman to smell. Could it be a glandular issue?
