Thanks to listener requests, Brenna and Joe dig into the fantasy world of Cornelia Funke's Inkheart and its 2008 film adaptation starring Brendan Fraser.
It's...not what we expected. In addition to less driving, Joe wanted more fantasy, while Brenna wanted more famous characters.
Possible reasons this didn't connect for us: translation issues and the revelation that it may have been meant to be read aloud at bedtime!
Plus: Helen Mirren doing Judy Dench, obvious sequel set-up, our interest in Fenoglio (but not Elinor) and the surprising longevity of the film's FX!
