About this episode
“Once you do something, you never forget. Even if you can't remember."
The Wives Colangelo are kicking off 2024 by returning to the beautiful world of Hayao Miyazaki and letting themselves get ... SPIRITED AWAY. What better film can capture the feeling of starting anew without even realizing that you're doing it? A coming-of-age film that incorporates Japanese folklore, issues of employment discrimination, appreciating solitude, and learning independence? What more could you ask for?
