Episode 417: Godzilla Minus One, The Boy and the Heron, Origin reviews

Dazzling spectacles abound, both dreamy and nightmarish, on the latest episode of Breakfast All Day. We got such a clamor for a review of "Godzilla Minus One" that we knew we had to catch up with it, and we're so glad we did. Then, we stay in Japan for "The Boy and the Heron," the first film in 10 years from the master animator Hayao Miyazaki, and possibly his last (although he still has his fastball at age 82). Then we wrap up with "Origin," an ambitious and admirable misfire from Ava DuVernay which has lots of big ideas but a clunky structure. And for our Patreon subscribers, we recap episode 4 of this latest "Fargo" seaon on Hulu. We'll be back Tuesday with news, where we'll discuss our LA Film Critics Association year-end vote and the careers of Norman Lear and Ryan O'Neal. Thanks for sharing some time with us during this busy time of year.   * Looking for the perfect gift for the Star Wars fan in your life?
