#72 – Billy Elliot

In this Movie-Go-Round Netflix Roulette, we checked out the
world's introduction to actor Jaime Bell: Billy Elliot. This
movie, about a rebellious tween boy drawn to classical dance in a
blue-collar mining town, joins last week's film in an exploration
of what it means to be a "masculine" man. Nicole, Brett, and
David dug into the political backstory, the unsung lives of the
women in this town, the punk and glam-rock needle drops, and the
struggle to escape or accept life in a working class community.


Next week's theme is Future Classics and the film is Spider-Man:
Into the Spider-verse. Be sure to check out the film so you can
follow along!
