Reel Window: Rewatching Random Movies from our Childhood

For the first time ever, Clint Eastwood makes an appearance on the podcast! And man, is it for a highly inappropriate movie for children. This week the sisters talk about “In the Line of Fire” and all that they misunderstood about this 90’s thriller. How does it fare now that they’re adults? Listen and find out!

Pauline’s pick this week is not age-appropriate from their childhood (as you may have gathered from the episode title), but it’s one the two of us thoroughly enjoyed, nonetheless. Did they understand it? Who can say. Does it hold up? We won’t know until Tuesday. But listen now to find out what we’re watching this weekend!

Woof. This week Pauline and Lisa talk about the 1989 animated film, “All Dogs Go to Heaven”. Another dark film from Don Bluth that has a LOT of age inappropriate content. The sisters adored this movie when they were little and quote it to this day. How do they feel about it now as adults? Is it still beloved? And were their takeaways at all accurate?

It’s Lisa’s turn to pick the film this week and boy has she chosen a childhood favourite. Despite being a rather dark children’s film, this is one Pauline and Lisa loved to rewatch and quote all the time. Is it one of your faves too?

This week the sisters have re-watched one of their family’s all-time favourite comedies, 1991’s “Father of the Bride” starring Steve Martin, Martin Short, and Diane Keaton. This comedy was frequently chosen for family movie night and is quoted by the whole Brunnen clan. But how do Pauline and Lisa feel about it now? And will Lisa’s second-hand embarrassment get in the way of the film?

Pauline picked one that the entire Brunnen clan watched on the regular. A tonne of great actors in this one, along with a crap-tonne of quotes for sure. This is a 90’s beauty that the sisters remember very fondly. What are we watching?? Listen to find out!

Hypnotism? Check. Past lives? Check. Amnesia? Check. Randomness? Check. This week the sisters are watching the little-known 1991 mystery-thriller, “Dead Again” starring Kenneth Branagh, Emma Thompson, and Derek Jacobi. And folks, buckle-up because this one is bizarre. Listen now to find out if it’s worth the ride.

Oh goodness. Lisa’s pick this week is certainly random. A mystery film from 1991 that most of us have forgotten. That’s the movie we’re watching! Listen to find out what if it’s one you know.

Pauline’s pick this week has left Lisa questioning herself a little bit. This 90’s film was one of Lisa’s favourites (Pauline also loved it. But Lisa more). Listen now to find out what Pauline chose this time! Perhaps it’s one of your favourites?
