This week, we are talking about the 1995 film by Terry Gilliam, 12 Monkeys!
Psychiatry, causal loops and human fallibility, we go deep this time and reach a milestone: our first disagreement over a movie. Freda tries and fails to solve time travel, Abi gushes over set decorators and Brad Pitt has a googly eye. Well done, Brad Pitt!
