This week, Gavia and Morgan discuss the pyrotechnic 1988 live action-animation hybrid Who Framed Roger Rabbit, directed by Robert Zemeckis. They praise the film's technical accomplishments and its use of cartoon and noir tropes, discuss its place in the Disney canon and its effect on the Disney Renaissance of the 1990s, and much more.
