On this Popcorn Eschaton, Scott and John take a hard look at two very hard-to-watch films. First, they discuss Isao Takahata's animated classic of war, suffering, and the love between siblings, 'Grave of the Fireflies.' Then they shift focus to Jonathan Glazer's Academy Award-winning 2023 film 'Zone of Interest,' and why it doesn't have the emotional impact Takahata's film does.
