It's scary. It's depressing. And it's a kids' movie. For
many children of the 1980s, Wolfgang Petersen's THE NEVERENDING
STORY was their introduction to concepts such as existential
annihilation, insurmountable sadness, and nested story structures.
But how does all this play for someone who sees it for
the first time as an adult? Our hosts fall on opposite sides
of this pseudo-generational line, and explore their different
experiences in this penultimate episode of season 2. Also
considered: Nazi wolves and suicidal horses, the connection between
harsh parenting and odd breakfast habits, Giorgio Moroder's
contribution to the score, and other dark children's films of
the 1980s. Plus: an argument for Ween as a rock band
relevant to this podcast.
