Who Framed Roger Rabbit?

Episode Summary


Thanks to its impressive technological innovation and astounding
attention to detail, Who Framed Roger Rabbit (1988)
achieved commercial and critical success under the Touchstone
Pictures film label. Erin and Rachel debate whether the clever
script and filmmaking can adequately compensate for offensive
content. Importantly, they also consider whether Jessica Rabbit
is actually bad, or just drawn that way.
