Can you do a full cinema therapy episode for The Kid? Please! 🥹
We quoted this movie a lot growing up…also whatever happened to this kid actor?? He was adorable!
Okay, I understand that this video is supposed to be about inner-child work, but I loved seeing the friendship here. Alan gives his filmmaking perspectives, sure. But what I am seeing here is a video that Jono knew would hit close to home and Alan being there to help provide comedic relief while still giving support with useful inputs. This is an excellent video, on many levels.
Thank you so much for doing this episode! I actually became a patreon in the hopes that I could suggest this movie (and a few others). I don't know if this was because of MY suggestion, but I am incredibly grateful for having the opportunity to see it! Thank you! - Also, tell Alan to watch this movie! He'll love it and I'd love to hear his opinion when it happens.
It's so good!
Okay, someone needs to hug Jono right now for us pls 🫂
Nobody's here so I'm hugging myself.
Jono here. I'll give Alan a pass because this was the end of the shoot and his tear ducts were spent, hahaha. But I'm glad this beautiful scene spoke to you. It gets me every time.
I have also never seen this movie, Alan, and I *still* cried when Bruce Willis forgave his younger self and said it wasn't his fault. Maybe you're just dead inside. ;-)
