This week on the InSession Film Podcast, we discuss A24’s latest in Marcel the Shell with Shoes On and our Top 3 movies about finding family! Plus, we reveal our new Movie Series that we’ll be starting next week.

Jenny Slate’s history with Marcel is well known, and the shorts are incredibly endearing, but Marcel the Shell with Shoes On isn’t reliant on you seeing or being familiar with them. So even if you go in fresh, there is much to enjoy about the film and we have a lot of fun delving into what makes it one of the better movies of the year so far.

Top 3 Movies About Finding Family (1:13:41)
Okay, so this is a pretty broad topic and it could go any number of ways depending on your criteria. However, we mostly settled on the idea of discvery and reconnection. Certainly there’s an element of literally finding family that many films do examine, but sometimes “finding” family is closer to home and discovering something new that completely changes your perspective on the world. For our lists, and much of the conversation, we equally considered the films that have done that remarkably. Either way, there’s a ton to mine out of this subject and it made for a fun, albeit challenging, exercise. That said, what would be your top 3?
