Pleasantville (1998)

We welcome Jordan Polan-Clarke back onto the show to talk about Paul Walker's ascent into stardom in Pleasantville! (This movie is a real bummer to watch right now.) We talk about the history of toilets in movies and try to parse what color represents in this movie (spoilers: we don't know because this movie doesn't know, either). We talk about Pleasantville's attempts to make a point and why it's doing something different than it thinks it is, as well as ways this movie could have been more interesting or dynamic. Joe finally finds an ally in his set dating rumors. Shoutout to Jenny Lewis.
