Before Lin-Manuel Miranda brought us rapping founding fathers, Alan Menken brought us a musical about child labor and the unionization of America in "Newsies." Debuting in 1992 and starring Christian Bale, this film has only a 39% on Rotten Tomatoes.
I'm joined this week by my sister Megan Wright, a writer, teacher, spiritual director, and musician to talk about the movie that she consumed weekly during middle school. We talk about how timely this film is both from a labor and a news perspective, why Bill Pullman should stick to being the president in Independence Day, and how we saw most movies the first time when we were growing up.
