Description

This week, the great Jeff Sweeney (of the Travolting podcast) joins us to look at failed Oscar contender Saving Mr. Banks, the deeply Disneyfied (and maybe evil?) biopic of Mary Poppins author P.L. Travers and her feuds with Walt over the famous 1963 film version. We grapple with our complicated feelings about the legacy of the Disney corporation, have an oddly contentious debate over Paul Giamatti's entire body of work, and reckon with a moving and close to home Colin Farrell performance as Travers' alcoholic father. Plus: deep dives into the careers of Tom Hanks and Emma Thompson (and a shorter drive-by on Jason Schwartzman). Cole can't remember who voiced the gargoyle in The Hunchback of Notre Dame. Connor outlines his plan for worldwide economic collapse. Jeff gets a lot of mileage out of his Elvis impression.Note: this is the second half of a two part episode, be sure to check your feed for the other half, dropping at the same time.Listen to Travolting's new series on the films of Winona Ryder! https://rss.com/podcasts/travolting/ Hosted on Acast.
