Description

Move over Prince Eric there’s a hunkier animated dream boat in town.   We watched Anastasia (1997) with our friend Donovan Marcotte and we would seriously consider giving up royalty for a shot at animated John Cusack.  Anastasia was the 1990’s animated princess *not* brought to you by the house of mouse, but rather thorn in Disney’s side Don Bluth and Gary Goldman - the team behind The Secret of NIMH, An American Tail and The Land Before Time. America’s Sweetheart and ‘90s Icon Meg Ryan is charming as Anastasia and Cusack was making girls and little gay boys feel some type of way as hunky Dimitri.  The tragic real-life story of the Romanov Royal Family and the ooky-spooky Rasputin somehow fit in this children’s tale of lost love, and reuniting with family (Don Bluth certainly has a thing for families getting separated).   Throw in amnesia, a talking bat sidekick and a touch of magic and no, we didn’t forget the soundtrack (it's Everything).  Don’t sleep on the pop version of Journey to the Past sung by none other than Aaliyah.  Iconic.  Thanks for listening and don't forget to subscribe, rate and review us on Apple Podcasts! www.patreon.com/moviesthatmadeusgay Facebook/Instagram: @moviesthatmadeusgay Twitter: @MTMUGPod Scott Youngbauer: Twitter @oscarscott / Instagram @scottyoungballer Peter Lozano: Twitter/Instagram @peterlasagna

This is the podcast where we watch a movie from our past that had a lasting impression on our little gay lives.  If we had no business watching it - we stole our parents VHS copy and watched under the cover of night.  If a diva gave a rousing speech - we memorized it and lip-synced it at a talent show.  Join Scott and Pete each week for a look back at the Movies That Made Us Gay!
